Get a dashcam for the rearview as well. I have one in the front and one on the back window.
That's one reason I'm considering the ThinkWare U1000. It comes with a rear camera.

So, how much poke do you need to ward off these nasty Sentras?

They do and more shockingly, people actually buy them for reasons I have never understood outside of cheap credit.
Nissan and Mazda are the MOPARs of the Japanese manufacturers and we ALL know how rabid MOPAR owners can be…

I rented a Sentra back in 2017 to drive to Casper, WY for the total eclipse. It had the V6. I thought it was a nice car. Only had two complaints. It defaulted to traction control when started, but I could turn it off. And I'd get a window reflection from the trim around the shifter when the sun was in the right position. Other than that no complaints.

I drove across Colorado from Durango to Denver, returned through Moab. Total trip was 2185 miles. Got 32.8 mpg with an average speed of 58 mph for the trip. Average speed included 90 mpg on Wyoming interstate and driving around town in Casper.

edit: I was just corrected. I drove an Altima.

My wife has a Sentra, 2016 with 12K miles on it. Not a comfortable road trip car for me but I'm 6-5.

'Bout lost my Bronco yesterday. Driving 45 in the left lane of a four lane street with center turn lane. Car next to me, I mean right next to me not in blind spot, starts coming over. I braked? broke? and swerve into the turn lane. They just drove on none the wiser. Lucky the turn lane was there and no one was in it.

That was my old high school buddy. Drove with blinders on and ear plugs in. More than once I pulled up to a light next to him and honking, waving my hands, etc. he never looked over. He also got chronically lost and drove to other states by accident every few months. It was crazy.

How many cameras are already on our Broncos? I'd love it if there was some sort of "Dashcam" & Record option, maybe integrate it with CarPlay.

They'd probably make it into additional subscription service, even though all of the HW and most of the SW already exists.
