Camera Recommendation for Back of 2020 Grand Design Imagine 2800BH to Monitor While Towing  

Question:

My new GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali has ability to monitor up to 2 trailer cameras while driving. The truck already has many cameras that give me a 7 second look while driving at the RV from the bed of the truck, straight down at the hitch, and from the sides of my truck. I know my 2020 Grand Design Imagine 2800BH is pre-wired for a camera. Now my challenge is to marry the trailer to my truck. The ability to see behind my trailer while driving is near priceless. My thought was minimally one camera pointed at the traffic behind me. Another perhaps inside would be nice, but not sure how to tie that into the trucks system.

Your 2020 Grand Design Imagine 2800BH is pre-wired for the Furrion Vision S system like part # FOS05TASF. This is one of the most popular camera systems because of how well it works for campers, plus you have the ability to add up to 3 more cameras to the setup. A lot of people like using the Side Marker Light Camera Kit # FCE48TASL to see traffic on your sides, and then add the 4th camera with part # FCN48TASF wherever they would want.

This is a wireless system so you just need to have power and ground connected to the cameras. You can tire the power in either at a toggled power source (like the headlights) or a constant 12V power source if you want to actively monitor what is going on while you're towing.

We don't have any kind of backup system that will install on the trailer and then tie in to the monitor on your GMC and I haven't heard of any options that do at this point in time (July 2020) so I recommend the Vision S for your application.
