Anyone has escort MAX radar detector ?

MrGump · 12-19-2013, 04:41 PM

It is the only radar detector I have ever used, but I am happy with it. I like that it tells me when I am over the 70 Mph, the red light camera features are great. I have the volume up loud and can usually hear it over the stereo. The downside to this is that it has a loud beep when the car starts and everything else is quiet. The laser detector makes the thing go obnoxious which is great!

I think the 9500ix has similar features, but I like the screen of the max and I plan on having the detector for a long time so the small difference in price wasn't a factor.

I'll say it has been VERY handy to have a detector....

Brand new for $400? I would say buy it!

I hardly turn on the stereo. But when the MAX alerts went off, I jumped!

The MAX just saved me from a laser on Toll Road last night so it's definitely a keeper
