Job2 Chrome package & camera system

Any thoughts on weather it's worth the added dollars. The custom grill might be nice, but wonder about the effectiveness of the rear view mirror video display...

I have a rear cam on my truck which i installed myself. Concealed right under my tailgate. Works great on hooking a trailer and backing up.

Talking with the Ford Dealer, he said the camera image is viewed on the left corner of the rear view mirror. He had seen this option at a show and thought it was quite good. Great for backing up to hook to any trailer. I'm going to order it... tgene

Job 2 trucks don't start building until 7/30. I've seen a pic of new grille, it looks better than the 05-07 chrome package. The old ones looked a little Lincolnesce.

I have the Kenwood Nav/dvd screen and I bought the kenwood back-up camera. So my screen was already set up for a cam. Works great. Soon as truck is put in reverse the rear cam pops up on screen. It has a very wide view also.

These ppl said they can do it, but I haven't personally used them. I am however thinking of doing one for my truck.

I ordered mine two weeks ago. My salesman said it was built into the rearview like stated before. If I remember it was around ~$300.

I wonder how many tail gates are going to get nabbed now.

You got that right -- I dont know why the manufacturers cant put a
remote lock like the rear of a SUV. open and lock with the rest of the
doors
