Which dash cam to buy??

We drive a 2016, 3500 Ram with a 2 inch lift. Because of the higher front end I think a cam that is small and can mount up on the glass by rear view mirror would get a better view of the road.
Am I wrong? What brand to buy??

  • Not really. That's about the same view I get from my own eyes driving the truck, so unless you mount something on the very front of the truck, I don't think you'll get any more coverage?

  • I note that a considerable amount of your clip is the hood and dash. Would mounting it up higher not capture more of the road?
  • this is what my dash cam caught when I had to avoid an object falling out of a truck in front of me.. Oh, I WAS towing my #5000 TT at the time too.. I had time to check the mirrors to see that the right lane was clear, so no incident happened.

    This is a VAVA dash cam.. Other than that, it's what I have and I have gotten lots of other clips and stills of things over it's time and works well for me.
