[Official] What's the Best Radar Detector?

diablokev87 · 12-08-2009, 08:13 PM

so i have been running my 9500ix for about a month now. I love it!!! Catching always on radars without a problem. GPS warnings are awesome. I love the MPH display while driving. The pop radar and laser detection is awesome as well. i have at least 1 confirmed laser save and NUMEROUS always on radar saves.

I had an older Escort Passport model (8500), which was amazing. When I saw the 9500ix, I did their swap for an $80 credit towards the new radar. The 9500ix is fantastic. Gives great forewarning on upcoming traps and the GPS features make it an absolute winner. The savings in red light camera alerts alone can pay for this thing in the city. It's ability to learn falses using the GPS is also a key selling point. V1 may have a slight advantage on range, but alerting at 2.5mi vs 3mi makes no difference unless you're doing 256mph in a Veyron. The GPS perks make this the clear winner for me.

"but alerting at 2.5mi vs 3mi makes no difference unless you're doing 256mph in a Veyron"

Ain't that the truth

That was a trip. I read that on Jalopnik while at work and was like, WTF? I can't believe someone could be so careless to put a Veyron into a lake
