yea mee too, i wasnt tryin to be rude. just i drive regular most the time but when theres no one around, then ill drive like a complete ***. im just smart about where and when i think if you drive like that then you can spend more on makin your car faster and less on stuff u dont need. BUT i just got my gf one and it works very well, its the cobra at best buy thats 180...works very good for the price

My friend has an escort 9500i and works really good, you can save spots on the unit so it doesnt go off at the same place you pass by everyday. The V1 is another one, picks up everything, but it goes off all the time and cant save spots so it goes off non stop, way too sensitive. Good for open highways though. Go with the escort 9500i and kiss all tickets goodbye, hes had it for over a year and has never gotten a ticket with it. Worth the money.

Adam, I have a Valetine1 and love it. I have also heard alot of good things about the 9500. Main difference is that you dont have the arrows on the 9500 like the Valentine1. I drove to Arizona this weekend (in my wifes car and forgot to pack the radar detector) I ended up getting pulled over going 85 in the Arizona desert. I think it cost about $240.00 to pay the fine. Either choice will pay is a wise one and will pay for itself, Imho it is the best investment you can buy for your car to keep you out of trouble.

i would definitely recommend you a passport escort 8500 x50...
people say that it competes with v1 and its ratings are actually pretty good...
I actually got my brother 1... he says it works good although he doesnt even speed...
u can get one on ebay in the range of $200...
