    Re: Best radar detectors.

    Look at K40 they are great I sold them for over 15 years in our stores. They guarantee no tickets in your first year or they will pay it. I can vouch for that first hand. Love them

    Re: Best radar detectors.

    I have a 20 year old V1 and it still works for me. At the time, it was the best, bar none, but now it has a few decent competitors.

    Anyway, one speeding ticket in 20 years, and that was because I was too inattentive to notice the cop pacing me. Nothing is foolproof, but this technique works for me. My nephew is a cop, he says "nine you're fine, ten you're mine." So I drive about 7 mph over the speed limit - until someone passes me. Then I match that person's speed at a safe distance, basically using them as a buffer. If the V1 lights up, I've got time to slow down, and the person I'm following gets nailed. This has happened at least a half dozen times. Also, I never go over 20 mph over the limit, that is a lot more trouble if you get caught. I don't need to hit a home run, a double works for me.

    Until the cop comes up behind you and clocks you from the rear of course.

    Here in VA you're not a driver, you're a revenue opportunity. Not to mention radar detectors are illegal and the cops have detector detectors. Here was a State police bust right up the street from me. Only the mail truck and the Mercedes aren't cops. Explain to your buddies getting a ticket from the cop in the minivan

    Re: Best radar detectors.

    Escort, I've never wanted to deal with the false(extra) false alerts of a valentine.
    Nor do I need to know which direction it's coming from. I'm going forward, if a radar gun was 1/8 mile behind me, my escort would have alerted me before I made it to that spot behind me, I'm focused on what's ahead.
