Vantrue - E3

I wanted the $300 one, I got a $30 one. Some day, I might be able to afford something better.

I wanted [this](https://a.co/d/20gDMMD). I got the one in the picture (can't link). So far, it works okay, but if I don't drive my truck at least once a week, it will drain the battery, so I have to unplug it at home. Amazingly, it still keeps the time and the date. I haven't hooked up the rear camera yet because I'm not sure how to do that. When driving at night in the rain, I could see better through the camera than the windshield. I actually have another camera I bought for my van, but I'm disabled and couldn't crawl through all the crap in the back to hook up the rear camera. Some idiot totaled my van a year ago, September, and it's still in the box. I'll probably get around to selling it eventually. https://preview.redd.it/455mgl6wu6zd1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=321a679cdaba527c718aa1d906d980cdd015d252

My crv isn’t that new but they are simple to install.  I have the VanTrue E3 in mine using the cigarette lighter. My wife has the VioFo A229 in her mazda 5 powered using the obd port.   Theres dozens of not hundreds of install videos on YouTube. 

I have the VanTrue dash cam , 3 channel, also bought the OBD PLUG IN FOR $29.99 and I love everything about it. Also purchased the 512 gig micro chip so I don’t have to reformat so often. I would highly recommend! Your car is such a huge investment and the insurance keeps going up , so I want to make sure you have evidence of the acc is not your fault.

I have an older Vantrue with the GPS base, records forwards, in cabin and rear, and can select which configuration you'd like. Zero complaints over 4 years.
