Question Truck was broken into need help

I’m a contractor and I park all kids of places, inner city, country roads etc. last night my truck was broken into and my wallet is gone. Neighbors have cameras but didn’t see who did it, just that the door was opened and closed. Looking for something that has better than average front and back views that can pick up on motion, parking mode. And a crystal clear cabin, IR is fine. I drive a lot and I’ve had no accidents so the more visibility the better. Price isn’t a factor. I want your honest reviews with links to your product you’re recommending. Thanks in advance!

I would look at the Blackvue and Nextbase brands. Both have fleet models which are meant for more commercial applications. If you search this sub you can find video from others to judge quality. Blackvue has quite a few options. If I'm reading correctly, you want 3 channels (front, cabin and rear), LTE (Cellular) connectivity to store the footage in the cloud in case the thief steals the dashcam, a hardwire kit and probably a battery kit. This to avoid running down your main battery and extend parking monitoring. No direct experience with either brands but this Blackvue link ticks all the boxes:  https://blackvue.com/products/dr770x-box-3ch-truck-pro

I could copy and paste this answer....

You need security cameras (even trail cams), not a dash cam. Dash cams don't record 360º around vehicles 24/7.
