Got a built in one with the Radar Detector, MaxÇam 360 from Escort, in the Hellcat. I am going to get a Blackvue front and rear installed in the Hummer. I don't trust idiots for nothing.

I ran the Blackvue in the Trackhawk and liked it. When Escort came out with their M2 camera it was convenient to mount it on the same bracket and eliminate some clutter on the windshield. It gave a great picture and captured the idiot totaling the Hawk real good. Saved me from paying insurance with it being their fault and proving it with the camera footage.

I know you probably don't care (most people don't) but those Blackvue cameras with WiFi are constantly broadcasting their unique MAC address everywhere you go, making your car trivial to track.

Get a 4k one, you need resolution to make out license plates. Everything else is preference.

I just ordered this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Simple, front only camera. Auto Start recording feature (when connected to switched 12v source). Records on removable memory card, auto-over-writes old files once card fills up. No "subscription" needed.

Has battery to continue to record once 12v source is gone (time of power-off recording adjustable).

At least, that's what I plan on verifying once received.
