Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

The roads were bad enough this morning that we didn't dispatch any of our trucks. Been having a fun time rescheduling deliveries. Thankfully I work out of my home office, though tomorrow is another trip to Nebraska.

I don't have a dash cam, so can't help you there. Probably would be a good idea for me to run one, though.

 

Yeah, real cold. I drove home last night after the game and my window was freezing faster than my defrost could keep up. It was super sketchy.

Drove past an F150 slid off the road today on 152, went down into ditch, then up a hill into trees, and back down into ditch by highway. Was going to pull the dash cam footage, but it didn't record anything.

 

Could your SD card be done? Those only have a limited number of writes before they go read only.

 

I don't know anything about that. I was under impression everything gets written over. I have it set up for 3 minute intervals.

 

Yeah I'd swap SD cards and see if starts recording again.

 

Damn, ok. I did want to get a bigger file card though now it seems like I should probably just stick with what I originally bought.

 

I think they make special high durability SD cards for dashcams, but I haven't actually shopped. A dashcam has been on my todo list for way too long.

 

I'll have to do some research then. Dash cams are certainly a great peace of mind in case of events that weren't your fault or could help others.

 

Highly recommend one from rexing

I’ve used both the v1 and v3. They make a direct wire kit for super easy installation. You can also do parking mode.

 

Got a recommendation for SD cards too? Been trying to find a solid buy.

I have my vantrue hardwired to fusebox and can also do parking mode, but mine's turned off.

 

You want to use quality cards for a dash cam. Cheap cards can burn through the write cycles in no time.

 

Pretty sure i have a 64 GB sandisk extreme in mine. Little more spendy but its got way more write cycles and they are very reliable.

 

I'm probably gonna save this one for appropriate moments.

 

I have a rexing, that i never use.
You know, its in the garage.

I'm at home today, playing school teacher .
Well knowing there wasn't a reason I ever considered teaching.

 

Do provide more details.

 

It's installed in the truck, I have it on an add a circuit.
Mines the rexing with a front and remote rear.

 

So you are using it then?

 

Let's say, I'm not uninstalling it.

 

Yesterday pic. Truck much more frosty today. Thought it was cool.

 

I also don't have a subscription. I've never even set foot in one.

Yes.

I'm in. You'll have to give me a couple drinks to loosen up though. I've always wanted to try my hand at a little heavy metal.

That's rough man. I hope everythings straight. Glad you didn't flip. New pants were probably first up on the list after that.
Time to get a new bumper!
