Default Backup Camera

Ive been wanting to replace my old backup cam foe awhile now, been looking at some on ebay from the $100-$300 range with all the bells and whistles like infrared and night vision, wireless with bigger monitors.

My question is, what is the best brand and bang for the buck? Its seems like it would be a pretty good investment to pick up a good on considering the damage you could cause if you cant see real good while backing up.. Thanks

Johnny take a look at the Clover TFT7001 it is one nice wireless camera with 7" monitor. It probably has the best range and for a long coach it is great in my book.

I bought one at Costco as well. It does the job and I like that it has infra-red night vision.
