Does anyone know if we can record video from the forward camera? If so, is there a way to transfer the video to a jump drive, ie USB port? Maybe Bluetooth through a phone and record it that way?

I certainly don't know, but that would be very cool.

Do any other Ford vehicles with the front facing camera allow that?

We used to hack the wires from backup cameras and feed it into a small DVR like this . I wouldn't think it would be too hard to find the video feed from the front cam if you wanted to split it off to one of the little DVRs .

The original debut from Ford (8:30 in the video) says you can record your experience on trails and send to friends. I’m sure there are catches but sounds like it’s a capability.

I feel this will be the ticket for getting trail footage. AD51F101-8F2A-4D86-AB63-770C97636F66.png

Yes you can...however, until it's fixed; looks like most of the video will be your winch....
