What is the Ford Tailgate Down Camera? It provides a view of what’s below your tailgate: namely, your truck’s trailer hitch. At Sherwood Ford, we’ve got the lowdown on the latest Ford technology, so keep reading below or visit us in Sherwood Park, AB, to learn more.
This technology makes it super easy to align your truck with your trailer. This industry-first camera provides a clear visual of your trailer hitch. Plus, you can see when the tailgate is lowered, so you don’t have to worry about running into your tailgate.
Like the Ford Tailgate Down Camera, these Rear Park Aid Sensors can help you reverse safely. This feature provides audible alerts when the tailgate is lowered, helping prevent you from accidentally hitting your trailer with your tailgate.
Ford F-150 and Super Duty trucks offer available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist. Take all of the stress out of connecting to your trailer with this one feature. It uses machine learning and computer vision to automatically identify your truck’s trailer hitch ball and align it perfectly with your conventional trailer.
Pro Trailer Hitch Assist aligns the hitch ball and trailer using a rear camera and rear corner radars to sense its surroundings. It takes care of modulating your truck’s speed, steering your truck, and braking as needed to put your truck in the right place. All you have to do is press a button and monitor the situation.
We’ve written about several other Ford towing technologies, including Ford Smart Hitch, which helps you distribute trailering weight. Check out our blog on the 2023 Ford Super Duty towing technology features for more information.
