Are the Cobra Radar's good??? Im not sure of the correct brand name, but ive seen em in Wal-Mart & Sear's.

There's 1 special State Trooper here that's a dick lol He's always looking to stop someone and lately, ive been lucky to slow down at just the right moment when i spot him coming.

Which radar's do yall use, which seem's to be the best one???

I use the cobra's in both my car and truck and have had really good
luck with both. I have the middle and top of the line cobra and they
work great. I'm sure there are better ones out there but for the money
I think these are very good......

I paid over $400 for the Beltronix STI. So far it's been good in the city. I have not used it for highway travel yet. I went with this detector over the Valentine simply because i did the research online and it was rated very high on many sites. Maybe I paid too much for a radar detector, but I'll count my blessings until I get a ticket.

I'm wondering as well. I'd really rather not fork out hundreds for a Bel, Val1 or Escort. I just want something that works.

I think my friend has that one in his Subaru. It runs on doube A batteries, right? I have a cobra radar, Just got it less then a week ago. Also have a state trooper here in town that trys to find a reason to stop someone. He stopped my friend in his S R T 4 just cause he had a white bulb in his third brake light.

Double A batteries????? Uhhhh no, you can either hardwire the set up through the dash or use a lighter-chord to power it up. Never heard of a detector that uses batteries.

Escort 8500 X50 for me. Nothing less would do.

Well yeah dude he has one. I even saw that **** before. He bought it from his friend at work for pretty much close to nothing. Pretty nice radar. It doesn't like run off of batteries, it has a cord too but you can run it off AA batteries of you wanted to.

I like my Cobra, it just finally bit the dust last night. I guess 5 years on a black dash in the Texas sun will make it freak the **** out.

my escort has paid for itself over and over. a LOT less cops in DFW than boston, but i still like having it. however, more and more police are using instant on Ka band radars and laser, which make radar detectors useless

Where can you find those scrammbler things.. Or whatever they are called. The cops can't read your speed or something like that. It messes their radar up. Idk. Seen it somewhere, Just can't seem to remember.

Not sure what batteries they use but there are such thing as cordless radar detectors. It's great for people with multiple cars that dont want to run around changing the cords from cigarette lighter to cigarette lighter. Just take the thing off the windshield and be done with. They costs a little more though.

K40 makes a laser blocker along with their radar detectors that is just awesome! Saved my azz several times when i had it in my Lexus. Unfortunately, it was built in and I sold it with the car.

is that the one that is a license plate frame?

GunshotZ28

Yeah, I think thats the one. I wouldn't mind having it. Just hope anyone won't un-bolt it and take off with it lol.
