I’d go with a DDPAI front + rear setup within your $200–$250 range. DDPAI cams tend to give reliable clear day/night video, the parking mode actually works, and the supercapacitor keeps time/date stable without weird battery issues. With a hardwire kit and a 128GB high-endurance card, I set mine and haven’t touched it since it just records what matters. Front-only is fine if you really need to save money, but getting rear coverage from the start gives you way better overall protection for city driving and parking situations.

I looked at the Ford dash cam too since I had points, but it didn’t really feel worth it for the price, video quality was just okay and you’re mostly paying for the Ford name. After a weird parking-lot incident, I ended up going with a DDPAI front + rear setup instead. Easy install, turns on automatically, and having both angles recording gives real peace of mind. Haven’t had to use the footage yet, but just knowing it’s there makes a big difference.

When I was researching dashcams it all boiled down to what sensor they're using. Sony or a cheap Chinese sensor. As long as you get a Sony sensor you're golden. Ended up going with a ddpai front and back system for $250. Had the Blackvue in my old car. Got stung by the dealership $1500 for it. Never again

Am using DDPAI… not bad

I’ve been down this road, if you want something reliable and not too expensive, I’d suggest checking out a DDPAI dashcam. I’m using one and it’s been solid: good video quality, app works well, and the parking-mode/back-up protection gives peace of mind. If you go cheap and off-brand, just make sure you know what you’re getting, I’ve heard too many stories of dashcams overheating or recording terrible video. A known brand (and a dual-channel unit) is usually worth it over a bargain bin cam.

From my experience the cheap ones dont last. For about a year it will start to show signs. On&off, memory card problems. When i switched to Ddpai, no more issues. Been using them for two years now.

Find a dash cam that does not use lithium batteries. There are a couple that use super capacitors that are heat resistant. I use a ddpai that is cost effective and never over heats. Here’s an article explaining https://www.blackboxmycar.com/pages/whats-the-difference-between-super-capacitors-and-lithium-ion-batteries-in-a-dash-camera?srsltid=AfmBOoolEg9SIWlUApGuPn6ExUuv9u4cJciiE9HRx12AxiDUrm737qLG

Get a 70mai or even better options like Redtiger or DDPAI and use a hardwire kit with it.. It will allow you to record 24/7 and don't forget to check if the hardwire kit has a voltage protection so that the battery will not be drained.
