I watch the left rear wheel and the rear corner of the bed. Glance at the right mirror to make sure the clearance is there. As long as the space is reasonably big enough, the left side will take care of the right side. The surround camera helps give you the overview, but the nitty gritty is in the mirrors for me. Another trick I use is paying attention to the painted line on the pavement that lines up the parking rows, where that line falls on the bottom of the mirror support as you are sitting in the drivers seat. It falls in different places on the mirror housing depending on if you are in a angled parking space or one you pull straight into. It just takes some time, practice, experience and patience with yourself. You will get there.That is what I'm missing and can't seem to hit. So lets say you are backing into a spot on your left, you're already as far right as you should be, what part of the truck are you lining up and to where on the parking spot?
Edited to make it clear...sorry.
