Does the 360 surround view use the cargo camera?

[jm888]

I saw the 360 surround view in a truck the other day at a dealership and it looks pretty cool. The salesman told me it uses satellites to get that image, but I have learned here that it just uses all of the cameras images stitched together to create it Anyways, I was wondering if it uses the cargo camera as well because I am trying to determine if you got a topper on the the truck, if that would just make the cargo camera no longer functional or if it would disable the whole surround view system.

Tailgate, two on mirrors, and one on front.

This will be the best thing I'll read this week, for sure.

Ok, cool, so I guess a topper wouldn't affect it. It still baffles me how it works! It makes sense how the two mirror cameras and tailgate camera will show everything from the mirrors back and how the from camera can show forward, but how does it see what is to the side of the truck ahead of the mirrors?

The side cameras cover the side of the truck from front to back.. but the image is skewed (kinda a fish-eye effect) when you get to the corners so be careful..

That right there is proof you cannot trust anything they say.

I was ROTFLMAO when I read that.

P.S. the 2022 trucks are supposed to have a trailer surround view system available as well.

So that means my salesman lied to me. He told me when you turn the surround camera on a drone pops out of the roof and hovers over the truck....

Satellites? Now that is rich.....
