GMC Sierra / Chevy Silverado Trailering Tech | Cameras Galore

[@Gubers]

I have a 2024 Sierra and the camera system is phenomenal. I added the trailer camera and it’s just crazy how much visibility there is. I can see 360 around my entire truck AND trailer. And I can see through my trailer in transparent trailer view. Also side rear views on both sides, cargo view, hitch view, 360 view, and front view. And all of these modes and cameras can be pulled up on screen at any time. Also the rear trailer camera view adds backup guides that shows which way your trailer is going and a diagram to show you what orientation your truck and trailer are currently in with jackknife alerts. Oh, and when driving with a trailer there’s also blind spot zones and assistance for turns to help you make sure you don’t cause an accident or turn too sharp. Overall this cameras system is one of the big sellers for me when I bought my truck. As a new travel trailer owner with little trailering experience, it has made it radically less stressful being able to see everything around me all the time. This is far superior than the gimmicky dial thing that Ford uses. Nothing better than simply have all the information you can. Cameras everywhere kind of do that. Plus it is immensely more safe.

They need to offer this as a package in all trims. This stuff is most useful in base trims on fleet trucks

[@stevornrichards1380]

yeah for people who don't know how to drive. i wonder how folks did it 20 years ago until now? should be optional

[@james2042]

@@stevornrichards1380 Um theres no amount of skill that magically lets you see the curb, or magically let you see inside your trailer or check your hitch to make sure nothings wrong, or the ability to see in your rear view mirror even though your bed is loaded. Also I said it should be an optional package in all trims, not that it should be standard equipment

[@g7003041]

All trucks should make it standard for all Trim. :)

[@IntervalePC]

I agree with putting the cameras in the rear view mirror👍 They could make the mirror a little bigger & go upward with it so it could also block that darn sun that likes to sneak through the top of the windshield & straight into your eyes.

[@MrFlyinbrian6988]

I just bought a 2020 silverado, love it and the camera system,,, also when you have a trailer hooked up to the truck and you use your blinker , it activates the camera on the mirror and puts it right on the screen. turn on the left blinker and the left mirror cam comes on and the same for the right side. found this out on acc. really awesome feature that i didn't know that the truck had,,, check it out. great video

[@gabethomas3190]

I wonder if there's a way to active that feature without being hooked up to a trailer?

[@kevp6161]

Always awesome content! 👍🏻 You could pretty much replace the owners manual in the ‘20 GMC 2500 I just picked up yesterday! 😂

[@aliviafox6871]

I was told the invisible camera don’t work for rear of fifth wheel, just wonderingly if it would see behind trailer, don’t need it to be invisible l

[@pacificstay5064]

Does the "invisible trailer" camera have to be hard wired to the truck or can it be connected by bluetooth?

[@jockp]

Great vid. Any chance you could do an updated version with the new 13.4" screen and DIC?

[@glenwa824]

Can you please make a video addressing calibration of the camera system.

[@marshallhall6449]

I agree with you!

[@johnsnyder6646]

So what is the option number on the window sticker for this camera setup?

[@roberttubbs6166]

I have a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500. I am unable to get from GMC a part number for the camera that will fit my vehicle. Frustrating that I am ready to spend money on the equipment, but GMC is of no help for me to spend it. I think I may have found the correct part, $650, but GMC will not guarantee it, and if it doesn't work on my truck too bad. Any assist you could give me would be much appreciated. I am leaving for Newfoundland in a month, with or without the camera. Thanks!

[@rllee8939]

Hey guys - thanks for all the great information. I have an issue with my 2019 Silverado that has the trailer cam (installed to back of my trailer and hard-wired to my trailering connection). The video shows that you can watch the video behind the trailer while you're driving down the road. Mine times out after 5 seconds. I've been talking with GM and the dealer and they have both told me that there's another part to make the camera play continuously BUT they can't tell me what part. Has anyone had to make a modification so that it works continuously or is there something I don't know about? Thanks in advance!

[@46wesdog46]

I just purchased a new 2021 GMC with the Aux Camera connections on the trailer plug area. Where can we buy these cameras? My local GMC dealer parts guy had no idea and couldn't find much info about them.

[@coachespitbbq]

im in the same boat i cant find where to purchase the cameras

[@krisis2phresh]

Mvi inc or echomaster sell them after market its called intellihaul 2.0

[@frankstewert8397]

Just trying to install the trailer cam in my 5th wheel, but found out I dont have the technology package for Al the cams? I’ll sell you my camera if interested?

[@thomasroseman575]

​@Frank Stewert still have the camera to sell?

[@tramainepayne9392]

My side by side camera times out am I doing something wrong? Do I need to turn a settings to something different

[@tracyjohnson5023]

Yet another great truck that's priced WAY above what most of us that need them to make a living can afford. I transport horses and exotics for a living and have gooseneck trailers. I have a 24 foot stock trailer, a 4/6 horse head to head and an 8 horse slant load trailer so I definitely need a 3500 or bigger lol. Imho much of the ridiculously high prices on the 2500 and 3500 are because people that just need a 1/2 ton are buying the bigger trucks because they think it makes them look cooler. Idk what do y'all think?

[@TheJonathan2144]

Could not agree more! I can count on one hand the number of times I see a truck like this actually towing anything! People suck

[@Thebazzman]

So my 2020 rst wont have this package either? Is it an option available to purchase?

[@dempseydoodles]

Can this system be installed on a 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali?

[@reedrobb]

What do I do about the absence of ALL cameras when tailgate removed? We carry a camper and detach the camera, all others stop working.

[@lmalone611]

Do you have the OEM part number for the camera?

[@oj555oj]

Alex plese review the aviator

[@jsshay01]

What does the camera look like when you’re simply backing up? As compared to the Ford? You keep mentioning the Ram. And, the Ford Raptor has the one where the lines move in order to back up perfectly into a space, without a trailer. We don’t always tow...I much prefer that. ??

[@jvandenberg100]

Gm and Chevy do the same.

[@homeremodelingtips3702]

He has a passenger to help with traffic so he could be as "safe as possible".... Why not just let the passenger either drive or shoot the video

[@jeffboggs6795]

Can this be installed on a utility trailer?

[@danb8473]

Is this available on a 2017 2500hd?

[@chrischapman276]

Eactly what I've been looking to find out about... the trailer camera system.... Can my 2020, new to me Silverado 3500LTZ with the same head unit you're showing here hook up all three cameras? And then can they do the OVERHEAD/birds-eye view doing so like what you showed on the truck alone? Is there any way for the wireless system on my cameras to hook up with the Silverado or do I need to change them out to the wired system?

[@thomasroseman575]

Wired gm system only

[@adventuresontheroad1969]

@@thomasroseman575 Okay. So on my 5th wheel I will need to change out my camera system to the wired system from GM? Not the Lippert system? or the other systems from the "RV WORLD"? It needs to be a camera system from GM? Just want to be totally understanding of what I need to do here. Thanks for the reply

[@rebeccagoforth2952]

We purchased a 2020 AT4 GMC 2500 last September, we did not receive the extra cameras either. We have a 5th wheel RV that we would like to add the cameras to. How do we get the cameras?

[@boydhamilton6195]

You can buy them for a GM dealer. It is an accessory. I think they charged me about $350.00 to add it when I ordered my 2021. Not sure it is worth it because it is not blue tooth. the cable system is a bit goofy to me.

[@bird271828]

Alex, does it record these images? Or do you need to buy a separate dash cam?

[@james2042]

There is no recording, you would need a dash cam. I wouldnt trust an oem camera anyways

[@bird271828]

@@james2042 Do you know why car manufacturers do not offer on board dash cams?

[@james2042]

@@bird271828 Very few people actually want them and they are not cheap. So it's just not financially viable to add.

[@gabethomas3190]

@@james2042 I would think it would be easy for them to make it to where all the cameras recorded at once and saved it to an SD card and then wrote over the old footage every hr or two

WILL THIS CONNECT TO THE FURRION CAMERA?

[@jimmurguia2727]

No. Separate camera. Furrion don’t even work with many brands of new trucks without a adapter. Power from teuck is to low from trucks

[@RoadieWingZZ]

@@jimmurguia2727It’s not low voltage that causes the problem, it’s the fact that it’s a pulse modulated signal and not a constant DC signal. Some accessory devices work fine with PM, but the Furrion design doesn’t.

[@alliejr]

Great feature and great video. But does GM provide the 2 additional cameras? And they are wired, not wireless? How exactly do they attach to your trailer and to that wire harness on the rear of the truck?

[@james2042]

The cameras come with the package and you install them on the trailer yourself

[@johnfitzgerald5206]

[@tracyfoster5939]

Can you put a camera on a 2018 Chevy.?

[@VivaLaGolf42]

I do believe there is a way to mount a camera on the back of a trailer, and when it’s connected and you go in reverse, it shows your trailer cam on the factory screen in the truck. If your trailer is big enough you can get side cameras, and when connected will initiate side camera view when you turn on your blinker to show trailers blind spot.

[@michaelarcher600]

How do cameras attach?

[@VivaLaGolf42]

You install one on your trailer, and there are plugs for them right by the trailer hookup, he shows it briefly.

Is it true that the HUD doesn't work well if your wearing polarized sunglasses?

[@clinte9897]

Dan K I have it and you can see it but it’s very dim, but if you take your glasses off it’s very easy to see. When I first test drove the truck, I was wearing costas. I asked the sales rep if it had HUD, he was like yeah, you don’t see it? After looking I found it but it’s still very usable with them on when you know where to look.

[@MrAFBuckeye]

I have the HUD on my 2020 Silverado 2500. No issues seeing it w/ polarized lenses. You can also adjust the position and brightness of the HUD to help with any issues
