Love my Garmin LTMHD

What is great is the built in dashcam. Less window clutter and it continuously records the co-ordinates as well. I really like it. I am a wagon master for RV Caravans in Mexico and its great for building & correcting road logs as I can pull stills of major turns along with their co-ordinates for building the logs.



For example there is a brand new highway in the Morelia area. So new its not yet showing in my GPS. I took it for the first time today. I wanted to get a photo of the exit onto it (yellow sign) plus the co-ordinates of where it is for future caravans. I simply found the appopriate spot in the video and took a screen capture shot. Date, time, co-ordinates & my speed (Yes, Mexico does have modern freeways)

  • Kinda hard to tell from the photos:

    1) are there electrical connectors on the back of the unit that connect to the mount?
    2) is there a 'watertight' seal between the mount and unit?
    3) how bright is the display (direct sunlight)

    Wonder if I could adapt it for my motorcycle?
  • Dash cams are becoming much more popular! They are also stopping a lot of insurance fraud. I have a front and rear facing dash cam in my minibus, it records both directions, and acts like a rear view camera when I need it. Great when I need to back up, as the rear view mirror is not all that great, and the rear window is 8' off the ground! So I can not see what is directly behind me without it. .

    Have fun on your travels,

    Fred.
