Abstract
A method of hitching a tow vehicle to a trailer includes determining a distance between a coupler on the trailer and a hitch on the tow vehicle. A video of the coupler on the trailer is captured with the rearview camera, and displayed on a display screen of the tow vehicle. The tailgate and the rearview camera are positioned in a generally upright first position when the determined distance between the coupler on the trailer and the hitch on the tow vehicle is greater than a predefined distance. The tailgate and the rearview camera are positioned in a partially lowered second position when the determined distance between the coupler on the trailer and the hitch on the tow vehicle is equal to or less than the predefined distance to provide a better perspective of the hitch and coupler.
