New update

I don't know either. Googling around, there is a trailer mount camera for SuperDuty trucks. That might be what you are looking for, but I haven't found any evidence that this has been attempted. Maybe someone else knows. Sorry.

A different forum discussion on this that doesn't really provide much info except that the TPMS and Trailer camera isn't available yet (as of early 2022). Good luck!

A long thread on this forum which despite the title covers the Trailer Mounted Rear Cam extensively and should answer all of your questions:

Any update on a Trailer TMPS system?

Posts include successfully completed examples of Trailer Rear Cam installations on Gen 14 F150's, a very worthwhile read, IMO, if interested in implementing this on your RV / trailer.

TIP - there are many nuances depending on your truck's build date and As-Built configuration - take the time to read the whole thread.

Hope that helps, Have Fun!
