I have added the parking sensors to my order (has not locked yet) but I'm debating about getting the camera as well. Is it possible to disable the camera and just use the sensors if desired?

As I say, they're nice to have, but the car is small and if you use your mirrors and don't mind turning your head (omg!), it's an easy car to maneuver in any direction.
having said that. especially in a cab, the rear visibility is poor top down, and worse top up (some serious blindspots) so I would say that PA w/camera is
a must have on a cab.

Especially if you dont want to curb rash your wheels or ding a bumper, its worth the extra peace of mind IMO

My lot car came with front/rear parking sensors. I could totally live without them, if I'd ordered my car I would have saved the $995.
