Aftermarket add on safety options
Awhile back I had a new loaner car while my 2014 F150 was in the shop. The loaner had some interesting options, like lane change assist/warning, forward warning systems with automatic braking and push to start. The rear view camera I have and it’s good when backing into a parking spot.
Yes, we have all driven cars without them for a hundred years and it doesn’t replace awareness, but it wouldn’t hurt to have it.
I imagine it won’t be of the same caliber as factory and I’ve seen pricing from $150 to $900 for some systems.
Since I’m not going to buy a new truck for years with those options, what’s the feasibility of adding any of the above options to a vehicle? Has anyone done it.
