    I wouldn't drive 20 feet today without a dash cam. It's too much anarchy on the roads now. I have a Garmin 35 and I'm happy with it. But I need something more than just out-the-windshield. I need one that looks in both rear view mirrors as well. And maybe even pointed rearward from the back of the rig. One thing I won't do is buy a cam from a truck stop. They're way too expensive at those places and their return policies suck. If you buy a cam from a T/S and it's defective but doesn't quit until 45 days in, you're SOL. Gotta send it to back to the manufacturer and wait weeks or months.

    I have their single camera which I have been happy. Been thinking about getting the multi camera system they have. @Dieselboss

    I'd like to amend the OP's question to Top Dash Cam for Dummies ( er electronic gadget challenged ).

    We have a guy that has 6 cameras for 360 coverage on his laptop. That's way over the top for me. I want to make videos of the canyons and passes I go through.
