Dash Cam Suggestions ?

February 25, 2013, 11:23:17 am

Been thinking about the dash cam idea, know some of you have them, so I am looking for the best bang for the buck while easy to use with a long enough time recorder to make friendly, ??
Better yet, a model that can switch between the coach and my service truck.
Thanks

Barry and Cindy have posted info on a unit that they use in their coach and tow vehicle.

the "go" sport cameras are the easiest and after visiting with Barry and Cindy yesterday in Wickenburg and discussing this and many other issues I will be getting one. They have an older type that I do not think is available but the local computer store by you has them. They run about 7 or 8 hrs on a 32meg card I believe. Ideal for recording what is happening in front of you for insurance sakes.

                 If you have an iphone there is "an app for that." Might be a less expensive option.

I like the idea of a dash cam, if nothing else it could provide entertainment at the end of the day.  I Always thought that they would be expensive and require a more technical Head than I have.  Think now I will look into it further.

Tks to the Bray's for comparing dash cams.  This should give me viewing of the roads traveled and part of the sites seen.  Got the best one coming from China via ebay.  Tks DAN
