New Ram Limited doesn’t have surround cameras?

The 2019 to 2024s don't have wiring for that. I have entire how to on adding the surround view cameras to them. The different wiring harness is simply not true.

Adding the cameras doesn't work for 2025+ yet.

Well, as I said, I'm not a dealer mechanic so I couldn't verify if there is a difference, BUT, my source is a very well-respected automotive writer that has the cellphone numbers for, and regularly communicates with, the VPs of engineering and heads of product development for Ram, GM and Ford truck divisions, and also as a writer strives for accuracy and completeness, so I have good reason to believe that person. I'm not arguing with you, I'm just sharing what I was told by a person with strong credentials in the truck world, whom I have no reason to doubt. Caveat emptor.

To add to my comment, when I say different wiring harness, I mean that they do have different wiring harnesses, but if a vehicle isn't equipped with something, they use a different harness. There isn't a universal harness with connections that are never used. It's cost prohibited to do that. And those points have been proven on this forum. And I believe proof over hearsay. If it was true though, it would make it easier for all of installing factory "upgrades". But we have to make our own harnesses.
 
Yeah, I can't believe that the only way to get the surround camera system on a Limited is by getting the $4K Level A package! Wish there was some way to add it later.
Same thing in 19’ and 23’, you needed the spendy Level 1 package to get the HK stereo and the surround view. As if you aren’t already paying enough…
