I learned to back up a trailer when I got my CDL back in the day. With that said, this makes all the sense in the world. I am about to buy a trailer soon because they're just to handy to have. I( make a lot of dump runs) When I do, I will have either this unit or one like it.
@@fixorrepairdiy4609 I did some of the same modifications on my 2023 Powerboost truck after you. It would be interesting to watch a video with your opinion about the truck itself after some time has passed and about all the modifications you made, whether you are happy with the result or not. Perhaps, taking into account the operating experience, would you have done something differently or not done something at all? I would also like to know how you care for the paintwork, do you do anti-corrosion treatment, do you use any additives, does it make sense to use high-octane gasoline when towing a trailer, how to change the oil in the automatic transmission, transfer case and differentials, which oil manufacturers other than motor oil to prefer, etc. Thank you
@@ulisg6040 Did you see my two-year review where I also reviewed the added mods? I got some touch-up paint to handle the inevitable dings, although it's impossible to show a proper before/after in a video. Tried and failed, never released it. I didn't do any anti-corrosion treatment as I live in the South and we don't have snow, much less use salt. Big difference from the decades I spent in the midwest rust belt. I did handle some of the rear diff rust from the factory in the first month, however. I did a lot of filming for how to change diff and xfer case fluids, just have not assembled and published that video yet. Thanks for the ideas! cheers
Question - just curious why you opted for the third-party solution rather than the Ford one. I thought I recall seeing Ford selling a camera that tied into the system already built into the trailering system? LOVE the appearance of the Adrenalize album!
Funny you should mention that...I too remember "hearing something" about a rear camera that you could integrate into the Pro Backup Assist. But I can't find anything coherent discussing nor offering the product. That tells me that it's probably too expensive or too buggy to be relevant. If you find something concrete, let me know. cheers.

It’s great to see you back! I really like your content.
Finally a new video is out, I wish they would come out more often 😊!
Me too! What else would you like to see being created?
