Ok - I feel stupid here. I had a 4th gen 1500 and when I would back in to parking spaces or my driveway, I was always straight as an arrow.
When I attempt to back in with my current 5th gen 1500 Limited, I seem to always be crooked / not straight.
Doesn't matter if I try to use the camera & guidelines or mirrors (though I will say the blind spot mirrors suck for me for parking; my cheap stick on mirrors on the 4th gen worked better).
I may try to use the rearview mirror tilt function and see if that helps any.
Just curious if anyone else struggles to back this truck in straight.
Never had any issues with any other vehicles I've owned. Not sure what the disconnect is with me & this truck. I've had it since December and haven't figured it out yet!
Don't know if its the curvature of the hood, or because its the stock suspension whereas my 4th gen had a 6" lift or what.
I dont have a truck yet, but I think it is vehicle specific. Every car and SUV I have ever owned I have always done a beautiful job backing into a tough spot. This Merc I have had for 8-9 Years now I still cant back in straight to save my life. I am always angled, I am always pulling forward and backing again. I still cant figure out why.
