    Recording your off road adventures

    Hey, for those of you who have dash cams of some sort, what is your setup? Do you take video with a camcorder or smartphone? What kind of mount do you use (other than the passenger!)? Post some pics!

    Well, our Mexican road trip is starting to take shape for the very end of July and into August. This is going to get tricky with your action-packed June/July schedule. I guess we'll play it by ear for now.

    That's pretty cool, but I'd be afraid of tree branches and what-not knocking that off.

    Anyone use something that's dash mounted?

    You could mount a GoPro on the inside if you're worried it would get knocked off. Also, those GoPros are supposed to be pretty tough.

    One of my buddies had a gopro last trip. It was call but I didn't like how there was barely any sound.... that took away from the wow factor because you couldnt hear the engine race or the tires screeching on the rocks.
