Backup cam possibility?

I know exactly what you mean about cyclists obsessing about weight; I used to cycle about 3K miles a year on average and am just now getting back into it after a 10+ year hiatus.

Anyway, what I find odd is the contrast between all the angst I read on boards (like this and others) complaining the new cars weight too much and that whatever a manufacturer did to reduce weight or at least hold it steady with ever increasing government mandates is never good enough...then many of those same people complain about all the equipment a car doesn't have!

And of course they want Luxes/Infiniti/Acura level of equpipment at a Toyota/Nissan/Honda price (or less).

I love back-up cameras and GPS systems, intelligent cruise control, abs, lane departure warning systems, heated seats and mirrors and monster sound systems, etc. etc. but I find the contradiction of wanting all that stuff and complaining about weight to be a bit amusing; not to mention the fact that most of those "essentials" were the stuff of science fiction just a few years ago.
