For these off you with High and above, do you actually use the trail cameras when off road? The cameras are cool and all, but I have to wonder if I'd actually use them. For example, my cell phone can do all kinds of crazy things, but I only use about half of them.

I bought a mid package bronco. My order with Lux got scheduled today. So just trying to figure out whether to keep my current or trade it in on my order. My dealer is one of the good ones, so want to let them know pretty soon what i'm doing.

I havenā€™t used them much off road, but theyā€™re super helpful when parking in tight spots at the mall!

I wheel alone and have used it a ton. Helps me when Iā€™m driving steep inclines and I canā€™t see above the hood. Also helps in narrow rocky areas where wheel placement is important. Reverse cam get used on the trail to make sure I donā€™t fall off the ledge during a turnaround. Overall itā€™s been useful to me.

Thanks for the input. I've been out on trails a couple times in the monthish i've had this one. There was only 1 spot where I wished I had cameras, so i'm very interested in other's experiences.

I use them off-roading all the time. So much, that I wish I could keep the camera on while in 4H. Only 4L letā€™s you keep the trail cams on while driving.

I use my cameras all the time. Offroad and on. My favorite function of LUX though is adaptive cruise control (and the 12" screen)

I've used them so much I'm figuring out how to retrofit a couple cameras to my dedicated crawler and display it on my 7" DVD player.

I plan to use it for security, living in New Orleans. Picked this up during Black Friday. Comes with lots of attachments/accessories. Continuous play and connected to power on dash with lux package.

I generally keep it in 4L when on the trails, so it'd be on all the time. I like the throttle control the lower gearing gives.

I use it Off road in 4Lo All The Time. When Iā€™m on inclines above 15 degrees I canā€™t see past the hood and rely on the camera to make my turns.

Thanks for the video!
