Hi everyone, and especially
@Jimmy07 and
@Brutal_HO , quick question about trying to order a 2022 LIMITED and get both the Trailer Surround AND the wired Tow-Mode Rear-View system. I'm sorry if this particular question has been answered in here, I made it through every post until page 18 before getting lost in the codes and differences between packages, Laramies, Long Horns, and Limiteds, lol.
I have a 2021 Limited now and use it mostly for towing a 29 Black Series Trailer off roading and into tight spaces. Getting a trailer surround system (for those gnarly camping trips and getting the trailer into a tight spot) AND the backup camera for the freeway rides is exactly what I want.
BUT, when I go to configure this online, using any of the RAM sites or configurators, first I add the Limited Level 1 Equipment Group which is what gets me both the digital rearview mirror and the surround view camera system). (you can get the cheaper safety group or towing packages, but they delete the Level 1, so getting Level 1 is the expensive and nice way to get it all.)
Then, lower in the options, the 'tow mode digital rearview mirror package' appears for $945. But, whenever I try to add this, it deletes the Level 1 package and all those other goodies.
There is all this talk earlier in the thread about being able to add both, but that doesn't seem to be possible with the LIMITED. I think I'm finding later in the thread (this is what I need clarification on) that if you have a package with the digital rearview mirror, you are going to get the wiring for the wired tow-mode camera. But is this 100% for sure? I have been searching dealer inventory all across the country (see screenshots) and I can find a lot of fully outfitted Limiteds that have the Level 1 Group and then later at bottom show the "trailer surround camera system" which is what I want, but I can't find any inventory sticker anywhere in the country that also show the Tow Mode Digital Camera on a Limited.
Does anyone know how (or for sure "if") you can get both the trailer surround view system AND the tow mode digital camera on the Limited and how to do it?
And if my hunch (and hope) is correct, that the Level 1 Equipment Group with Digital Rearview mirror IS going to include the wiring prep and that plug on the left side for the rear view mirror, how do I get the wired tow-mode camera? It cancels it out. Do I just order and hope that if the wiring is there that eventually this will be a part available separately? It seems bizarre the build system won't let you add on the wired tow-mode camera in any way unless you delete everything else.
