My VIN and build sheet says this truck had a front camera. I have found a plug but no idea where or how said camera is mounted. Anyone else have any pics and why you even need a camera in the front?

Look up at your rear view mirror. Is there a black square around it?


parking assist

 

 

Park assist has sensors in the front bumper. Doesn't use the camera.

Yea it doesn't so I'm guessing it didn't. I don't have parking assist or backup cam. I have the projection icon on the infotainment screen. It says nothing hooked up.

Projection is for Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.

The "Projection" icon is for Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.

 

The front camera is for Lane Keep Assist / Forward Collision Alert you would have the switch under the radio and on the steering wheel and the camera is located next to the mirror, I say camera is the loose term as you can't see what it can see, only the computer can.4b3c9d908f1ef9956f9e00497becd911.jpg87170ff3c11fcc8a39b1b2258dc4c435.jpg

Right on the money, I was getting ready to post and you beat me to it. I really like the way the seat vibrates on the side you are drifting on, I have an audible alarm for drifting lanes on my Mazda, the vibrating seat is much better. Also the collision alert, red lights flashing on your windshield really gets your attention and the brakes are ready to go, pretty slick.

I wore out my new battery the first weekend, I liked the seat vibration so much...

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
