Default Re: Backup Sensors

I'm glad I tripped across this thread, since I've been bugged about the poor rear visibility on these cars. I've toyed with the idea of a rear view camera tied into a navigation system, but I don't know how well that would work (if I have to turn on the car and sit there for a minute waiting for the nav to boot up, just so you can see the video display out the back...I don't think I have the patience).
How well do these work?
Now that you have it, are they a 'must have can't live without' type of a toy?
How accurate are they? What distance from an object do they give their most severe warning (what ever that is)?
Thanks!
