2025 Maverick - 4K Dual Dashcam

[Bad Samaritan]

My 2025 Maverick is currently "Shipped". I checked out Ford accessories - looking for a dual dashcam installed.

Ford offers a $699 4K dashcam plus $182 installation.

I checked Amazon ratings for this camera - it's a mediocre 3.8 out of 5 (but note - it's half the price there. What a ripoff by Ford!)

So I went ahead and ordered a reputable Rexing from Best Buy. Installation is $99, altogether I paid $279. Installation is scheduled for January 21 - should have my truck delivered by then. The kit includes installation hardware.

Hi,

Check out Viofo, it's not hard to hard wire it in. There are several U Tube videos that walk you through the process

Solid choice, coming from someone who uses a Rexing V1P in my Mav.

I know, I've done it myself. I installed a Rexing on my son's Stinger. But it's cold now, I'd rather pay $99 to have it done at Best Buy, not worth my inconvenience.

Yep, it's the second one in the family.

I am thinking about these one of these two, Cobra SC 400D or the Cobra SC 250R.

I looked at that camera and it has good reviews but I'm cheap so I went with a no name duel from amazon for $70. It has 4k front and inside (Im driving for Uber) with Wifi, GPS, WDR, IR, G-sensor and super capacitor. It also uses suction cup mounting so I can take it off when not using. Just had it a little over a week but I'm liking the quality of the video. Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CX95Z5DS?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

I have a similar setup in my Honda Element which I will be trading for my upcoming Maverick hopefully very soon, and it works (actually, helped me with my December 2023 claim when my car was rear-ended).
For my Maverick though I want a clean installation with no visible wires and no 12V plug.

This is why I was glad I had a rear facing camera.

I hope everyone was okay.

I’d love to see some pics after the install. Please send an update after you’ve installed it in January.

Will do.

Here are some from Best Buy reviewers.

Yeah. Only took the government about 8 months to pay for it. But that was all the insurance company dealing with them. All I did was make the initial claim. Was out my $500 deductible until the feds paid the claim.

I was also waiting a long time for my payment. The offending motorist was underinsured with Geico, and it took them almost 1 year to pay me. I got a check a couple of weeks ago, and the loss was in December 2023.

We had our first serious winter storm in metro Detroit a week or so ago and the freeways were glassed with ice. I was hyper-focused on traffic behaviors behind me , praying that everyone was paying attention to the situation and not following too closely...but after a few miles I opted to exit and take my chances on surface streets (which weren't much clearer but had slower-travelers and less traffic overall). Since the latest BCM update my @LASFIT LED taillights no longer work, so I went back to the OEM bulbs, and with the Leer cap's high-stop lamps I feel like I've done what I can...and then I see the rear dashcam of a USPS vehicle rolling into the rear end of a stopped Maverick and I'm worried all over again.
