    Hey there fellow truckers,
    So watching all these road rage fails online really got me thinking
    and its better to be safe than sorry. I want too invest into a dash cam,
    but with so many options i have no clue what is worth dishing the cash out for.
    Im asking for advice, what dash cam are you guys using?
    What would you recommend in your experience?
    Thanks in advance.

    I've been using a Garmin Dashcam 45. I have no complaints. I bought it at Loves with points. You xan buy the Garmin 45 or 65 online at Amazon cheaper.

    Three times I have been in completely unavoidable accidents (well for the most part) pretty much all three times the crazy driver just plows into me while I am driving(they were all from Colorado) like I am some kind of magnet. All three times the driver tries to blame me to the accident investigators and all three times the dashcam I had saved me from getting any blame. Definitely get one.

    I use Garmin DezlCam, it is not necessarily better quality than any of the competition but it is easy to use. I do not have to press any buttons, it just goes soon as I turn on the gps it is built into.
