    I am leaning towards a GoPro, but haven't decided quite yet. My dive buddy got one had he liked it.

    Does anyone have any experience with the MobileSpec dashcam that Love's sells? I've been looking at them, but, I'm kind of skeptical. Same with the Cobra.

    Buy something that is made in South Korea. Its not that everything made in China is bad, just more chances that Korea stuff is gonna have better quality.
    Try this website http://dashcamtalk.com/ i got lots of info from here.

    Hmmm... there seams to be a TON of info here, and a big Thank You to those are are keeping us informed!

    Ok... Im currently looking at the GoPro Hero3 Black as my dash cam. It seams to have the best video, and has the ability of being taken down and used for things outside of just being a dashcam.
    Does anyone have any real world experience using this particular camera?
