In addition to the camera on the top of the cab, we have a regular backup camera but it's in the tailgate so isn't any help when you have to take the tailgate off to load the camper. The camera option was only a $200 option which was probably the best deal on the new truck -- gave us two back-up cameras and a larger screen in the dash, not bad.
That is my other tough. Instead of paying $3x0 for Ford trailer camera, while leave the tailgate at home, I am thinking about removing the whole tailgate panel and transplanting it on top of the camper.
The camera has only 2 wires to extend, but my tailgate also has like 6-9 prongs plug, where some goes to light, but I am still working what other wires do.
The cargo camera alone is $200.
I spend $2000 on trailer tow package, that comes with 5 cameras, program that estimates the trailer trajectory and some more bells that I had no time to discover yet.
First time I saw "satellite view" of my truck with all the curbs in blind spots and legs of people walking around the truck - my jaw drop and I am still looking for it.
Having hood at 5-foot level and still being able to bring it within 1" to concrete wall make whole new laws of physics.
