Following. There is basically no AT4 stock near me that has the trailer camera package, so hoping I can maybe add it later. I would love this for towing my RV.
I wouldn't hold your breath on that. GM has made it very difficult to add options later.

If you want the cameras you better order one with it already installed to insure you have what you want.

I work at a GM store and I am looking at getting a new body Silverado and ran across this issue myself. I want the "HD Surround Vision" camera package, but I am finding out that it isn't compatible wi

@Gypsy1962 did you get any good results after hooking everything up?  I'm in the same boat with the technology package and no aux camera option.

found that out the hard way too.  There was no trucks with the trailer camera package at any dealers around me, so i thought i could add it after too.  GM salesman even said i could of course...  Brought it in for an oil change and to have the camera added and they said its not possible on these new gen trucks...

I am curious if the rear trailer camera will stay on or if you just get an 8 second peek like you do when the camera is not connected. 
 

if I have to activate it for every look that seems to lessen the value. 
 

Thanks.

I have this plug on my 2019 GMC Sierra SLT Premium also.  Could you put this rear camera on a boat trailer?  Been trying to search for answer but no luck.  Thanks in advance!!

Best I can tell, at least in my 2019 SLT - the hard wire connections are there..  there is a connector behind the license plate that should be for a camera, and from 3rd hand information it seems the cabling is in the door/mirror for the side view trailering cameras...  so if you can get the cameras, great... what you'd be missing is the programming for the head unit to actually recognize them...  the dealer will most likely *not* do this.  Our only hope is to get somebody like WAMS to program it up for us :)

be warned though if your truck didn’t come with this it’s next to impossible to add after the fact...

Thanks!  Appreciate the quick reply.  I'm investigating whether not being able to add this is actually a fact.

Ordered a 2020 DENALI CARBON PRO 1500 and dealer said can't get the auxiliary trailer camera option cause of the technology package .This is crazy,you would think because of the technology package you can get the trailer camera option.

Well. I have the package and the camera on my 2020 NHT SLT.  I have a buddy with a 2020 Denali 3/4-ton that has the connection as well - but since his has the 360* cameras, his didn’t come with the separate cam.

 

I will go see him tomorrow and take my cam and we will just try it out.

Think the dealer led you astray. That was the case for 2019 but my understanding was they changed it for the 2020 trucks...

I have a 19 HC as well as the trailering aux camera kit and just ordered the connector # that 2kSierra was so kind to provide.  I'll connect the existing tied back camera cable that's already present behind the license plate to the new connector once I receive it.  Then, plug in the aux cam kit I already have and see where things go from there.

      287,500 Mile Service   8/13/2026   Reset Fuel Trims   Since the work done in the previous post there was a good improvement in response in all areas except right after a fill up where the LTFT would go -20%+ for about four miles while the STFT was near neutral. Before the work they both went very negative for a few miles after a fill up but act normal thereafter.    We did a systems check of the vapor recovery system for functionality and ability to hold a vacuum. That checked out fine. But this doesn't mean the charcoal canister is dead in the water. Testing that is next up. For now the reset of the fuel trims.    I intentionally shorted the fill exactly two gallons to eliminate any chance of filling the canister. On start up the trims were behaving normally until I got up and rolling where the LTFT went -10 / -11%% but the short was + 2 to 0%. Within a mile the the STFT offset the LTFT and by 2 miles they were neutral. HUGE improvement but still not hunky-dory.    I'll watch them for a few days. Perhaps another tank where I will fill completely to 'first click' and compare. Meanwhile on the hunt for a new canister and I'll toss another purge value at it for good measure. Pending the outcome of the canister test that is. Progress of any kind is welcome.    Fuel economy improvement with bringing hole #3 back to the living was a noticeable bump to the positive. Even on the few miles I drove after the refill I already see another bump up by the trims reset.     She's purring like a kitten with a warm bowl of milk.

      Yeah, shame I can’t really get that filter easily anymore. Running a PureOne. Your fave!    TAN would be neat to see. Confirmation I ran it too long probably. 🤣

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By superdave160 · Posted

      My son and I both bought new trucks in 2017. Both of us immediately put Truck Covers USA American Roll Covers on our trucks. My son still has his truck and it never sees the inside of a garage. We live in Alabama, so not much snow. My truck was my daily driver and was in the garage when I wasn't driving it or at work. No issues with either cover even after almost 9 years. About a year ago I sold my truck to my brother and bought a 2025 Silverado 2500. The second thing that I put on that truck was a new Truck Covers USA cover. They are very well made and have a very positive locking system. I looked at a Retrax and my concern was the way that the cover locked to the rail. BTW, the first thing I put on the new truck was step bars. Those new trucks are high!

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      The Allison 10 speed torque converter doesn't "lock up" like the previous transmissions. It has 4 operational modes; open, slip, transition from open to slip; transition from slip to open. I have an Edge CTS3 monitor and I monitor transmission torque converter slip. Step on the gas and you get a little slip. Take your foot off the gas and you get a little negative slip. I have not found a way to display the torque converter mode beyond that. My Edge CTS3 also displays something that our trucks should already display, the current gear. I also monitor throttle body position and engine load. If I see the engine load getting too high, I'll manually drop a gear.

      Nice result. Your filter is working well  I'd have like to have seen the acid number for this sample. Curious type that I am.
