Be careful what you wish for. I have a very loaded 2020 LT. It does have the multi camera "system". I put that in quotes because you have to buy the extra cameras for placement on your RV which I opted not to do. The backup camera on GM trucks that come with the system, is different than the standard backup camera. They come with a wide angle camera. It's pretty much useless as a backup camera under normal backing conditions. Everything is distorted and the truck sensors beep all the time because it thinks I'm going to hit something that I'm not even close to. The view when backing up while the wheels are turned makes the distorted view in the photo 10X worse. I've had two dealerships tell me it's normal and nothing can be done to correct the problem.
Interesting. My issue is my DRW was a bed delete truck so I didn't even have a back up camera. I was told (and I think the dealer believed truly) that it was just a matter of inserting a camera to an already in place wiring harness and I would have a backup camera. Everyone has come to learn that is not the case. They have had the truck for a couple weeks now trying to figure this out and others it appears. I also want the ability to switch to a camera that would should show the 5th wheel on the flatbed. I have a bulk red fuel storage tank and storage compartments and I cant see the fifth wheel hitch without a camera. My thought was with the camera package this would be much easier. Its a nice truck and the more I drive it, the more I like it. However the camera issue seems to be more of an issue than it needs to be. If I would have ordered the truck, I would have kept the bed and ordered the complete camera package. I bought what was a available, I expected some issues with this, but not this much.
Perhaps you can swap your rear back up camera for a typical backup camera?
