Help me catch up on backup cameras- for truck and trailer

I've never felt the need for a backup camera and so far have not owned a car new enough to come with one.

But we are about to acquire an Excursion and a hybrid and it might be nice to join the 21st century.

The perfect solution would be a backup cam on the truck that assists with hooking up the trailer and then switches to a camera on the trailer for backing it into the campsite but i'd also like to be able to switch on the camera to monitor the road behind me, like tailgaters and whatnot.

And, i want the whole thing for under $100

I could spend more if it was integrated with a android stereo/GPS

Sifting through the ads and features I think i could easily spend a lot of money and not get what i want.

I would be grateful for some direction

Thanks
