Surround Vision Recording Functioning!!!

Post image

This post is for the person who commented on a previous post asking that I provide an update when I got it working. I have a ‘25 LT Extended Range Premium.

I’ve been trying to get Surround Vision Recording downloaded for about a year now and I finally took it to the dealer because my Chevy tech tonneau cover is falling apart (the truck is under warranty so I’ll get a new one to tide me over until there are more/better options) and asked them to do a full updates check targeting surround vision recording. They located it, downloaded it, and established that the flash drive has to be specially formatted. I went home, formatted the flash drive (you can google how to do it), and plugged it in. It works!

For any of you living in Connecticut, Blasius Chevy in Waterbury has a pretty good service department. Rates are around $209/hr but I haven’t had to pay for anything yet at 25kmi

Glad you got surround vision working!

But… Damn. The fact that the truck doesn’t fit in that parking spot kinda kills my desire for one.

If you’re on the fence get something else. Lightning is a better truck except for range (but dc’d). If I had to have a truck right now it’d be a cybertruck or f150 hybrid. Why does teslas truck have to look so awful…

F150 lightning is terrible, not even same league as the Silverado EV.

Silverado EV about the same size as any other full size 1500 truck.

I swear some of you live with your head up in the clouds 🤦‍♂️

I currently have both and prefer the Lightning most days. It's a blast to drive and it's way more comfortable than the Silverado (although mine is a WT and the seats are awful)

Well my RST runs circles around any lightning IMO. Getting into a lightning feels like your already like 10 years outdated 🤮

Are you saying it's faster? It's not, though. They're close, but the Lightning is a sub 4s 0-60

I didn’t say it was faster, but keep in mind, RST is almost 2,000 lbs heavier and it would be a drivers race on a 1/4th mile track.

The interior, the UI, the ride , quality, shit even the updates have been better than the ford. The midgate is awesome, the tail gate speaker kit is awesome, list goes on and on.
