I am fortunate to have a build spot for a 2021 C8 LT2 Z51. Though I have been waiting many months (like everyone else for this car) and was pushed from a 2020 to 2021, I passed on a November allocation slot because the Z51 is summer tires only, and I intend this to be a year-round daily driver with true winter snow tires whenever I won't be plowing my very long driveway with the front end. As you might expect, access to the needed size snow tires are tough to ensure (ie, true snow/ice and not all season).
As I will likely do the dealer's next GM allocation process in January/February (initial one was stated to be for the first 2021 quarter's production), it means I need to get serious about my first ever dash cam purchase. My C8 will have 1) the PDR which will record forward all the time whenever to car is on, and 2) the rear camera as a rear view camera that doesn't record.
My factors off the top of my head include:
- I desire true independent, F&R maximal protection protection.
- I plan on buying a second Valentine 1 Gen 2 detector.
- My smartphone is just a phone for me and I don't use any apps meaningfully.
- I have still been (outrageously) paying for the true, original Verizon unlimited data plans.
- Being in rural PA/NY, I have absolutely no cell coverage at home and lousy HughesNet satellite which means no streaming.
Over the next few months, I look forward to learning all I can from the dashcamtalk brain-trust!
