Is anyone using it? I got mine set up today and, well let's just say I am underwhelmed. I don't know what I was expecting but from what I can see it's basically to help people who get confused about which way to turn the steering wheel when backing a trailer.
Somehow I thought it would help on my small utility trailer because I cannot see it in the mirrors until it starts to angle, that's when I make my steering adjustments, same as with the Backup Assist knob. Still can't see the trailer any better. There is a simulated graphic that shows the angle of the trailer but it is simulated so you don't see the surroundings. I suspect it's better to just use the trailer side view camera setting, at least this way you can see what you're getting close to.
Just curious if I'm missing something. Admittedly I've only used it today for the first time. I'll have to try it out on a long, straight backup when I've heard it can be useful in that scenario.
