All I know is what I read but I understand you can fool the blind spot feature on the Ford's by telling it you are towing a conventional trailer. If you tell it you are towing a fifth wheel it shuts it off. For how well this works see the comments above. I do like the idea of the camera system on the Ford's but not sure how helpful it is towing a fifth wheel. The backup camera for the trailer which is integrated into the truck's monitor would be a nice feature, I guess. The one thing I do like is the built in tire pressure monitoring system that is available even on the DRW's. I see that you can also opt for a 4 tire TPMS for the trailer but there is a limitation on the size of the valve stem, if I read it correctly. The bed camera would also be nice as I have to hook up blind with my Denali and BakFlip bed cover.
