"This is a product that really works. It takes the guesswork out of knowing how close or far you are from anything. It replaces doubt with feet and inches! You must experience this product! It is one of a kind. Finally a solution to backing up your truck or big rig!"

Larry Daniel, President, America's Independent Truckers Association

"I compliment you for your excellent backup warning system. After a year of heavy use it is still working flawlessly.....in contrast with another similarly priced system, installed at the same time on my second vehicle, which has completely failed. I should have [chosen] the TailGauge system for both family vehicles. I will order your system to replace the one on the Suburban. ....Installation on our sedan was quick and easy. The step-by-step instructions were clear and easy to understand. There has been no "falsing" or unnecessary signaling.... The extended range of 16 feet provides more time to avoid a collision with another .... vehicle like in a shopping center. Sounding the horn could prevent a costly collision.... TailGauge provides very comprehensive info on your systems on the net. This should be a must [read]... before making a buying decision.

  • speaker pictureOur  Model A-F is a beep and voice warning unit that uses four almost-invisible, flush-mounted sensors to detect obstacles up to 12 feet behind your vehicle and people at around 5 feet from the rear of your vehicle. It warns you with beeps and a voice warning that actually says how far away an obstacle is from the rear of your vehicle.

  • Our Industrial Kits are ruggedized versions of our backup systems with added features for commercial and industrial use.

  •  Our TailGauge Sensor Bar, designed especially for larger vehicles, 18 wheelers, refuse trucks or vehicles with large moving parts.Patent Pending

The TailGauge Vehicle Backup Sensor System was designed specifically to help automobile and truck drivers back up safely by providing a second set of eyes. While you are backing up, the system's backup sensors see what you cannot, and it warns you if there is an obstacle in your way.  And TailGauge® works in ice, snow or rain, when visibility can be poor!

“There are a lot of kids in my neighborhood. I have always been fearful of hitting one of them as I pull out of my driveway. This system gives me a peace of mind. It really works. I still use caution, but the system has given me a peace of mind. I have not yet had a child behind me, but this thing has detected basket balls and other toys.”

Debora Myers, Iowa
