Ford owner installed trailer camera

There are apparently two models of this. One is camera only and the other is camera with TPMS. Does anyone have either model installed on their Ford. We have a 2018 with sync3. I am wondering whether the tire pressure system is worth the price tag!?!
  • When I did not spend the money, I was considering the TPMS option.
    Per my experience trailers tires are on lousy side in quality and nothing sucks more than in pouring rain get flagged by fellow motorist only to pull over in the mud and find that your rim is square with no sign of the tire.
    Don't know if you will need learning tool, but This it the tool I had to buy when dealer screw the training on my dually.

    Huh?

    What is "when dealer screw the training on my dually" mean?
  • I had 1 of TPMS showing like 15 psi higher than actuall.
    Took it to dealer and when after 2nd visit they fixed, or replaced the sensor (SA could not explain) - they reversed the training and inner tire was shows as outer and then outer was reversed.
