Default Is the 360 degree camera package worth it ?

Hey guys just want to see what your thoughts are on the 360 camera view. Just about to put in my order for a lariat and wondering if the $850 Canadian is worth it for 360 camera view option
thanks

I think the Co-Pilot 360 Assist 2.0 is worth it, which means 360* camera

But I also think the Active Prep is worth it...

This is really a personal thing. I definitely wanted the 360 camera in the XLT trim.

360 camera comes in tow technology package or as a standalone.

Even though the Lariat comes with a co pilot 360 assist 2.0 the 360 camera is not standard it’s an $850 option
??? according to the build on the Ford.ca site

Okay, I see, it does do the Assist 2.0 without 360* camera. Seems weird but it does show that.

Not sure if worth it then.

Our Explorer has the 360* cameras and they are neat, but, $850...IDK


If I were getting a new Lariat though it would be two things guaranteed: Powerboost, and Active Prep. Active prep seems to include 360*

Not sure about Lariat, but on XLT, if you order the co-pilot 360 assist and the 360 camera packages, you get 360 degree camera, ACC, and navigation plus something else IIRC. Plus, in the US, you also get a 250 credit or rebate on one of those packages. The net cost of that vs just ordering navigation seems like a better value (assuming the added features are of interest, of course).

what trim are you looking into getting? its standard on either 601A king ranch or platinum IIRC. the 360 camera package isn´t necessarily paired to the co pilot 360 2.0. but i think $850 for the 360 package is steep

360 camera comes as a stand-alone or in the tow tech package I think.

Yes, it’s totally worth it, especially for the front and side views. No more parking your truck short or having to lightly bump the vehicle in front of you.
