Hey i was wonderign what you guys think, im debateing on the P40 or the Valentine...I herd there both excellent...But the P40 will pay for your speeding ticket...been proven...haha So jus a little input? thanks!

 

Get the damn V1 and then you won't have to worry about getting tickets that anyone will have to pay for. 2 years of speeding under V1 and I have not been pulled over once for speeding.

 

I heard that the Escort is better than the V1.

 

in Escorts dreams, lol. The Arrows are so nice to have, you know exactly where those turds are coming from. My dad had a passport 8500 and i got him a V1 and he said he'd never own anything else.

 

I don't know....thats just what i heard. but that is pretty cool that it tells you were they're at. Do you know the rang on thos.

 

I got a V1, I would never use anything else. From the tests I've heard, the passport is just as good reading radar, but doesn't have the remote display or the arrows. Also, no matter what, make sure you get something with the new Kpop band capabilities. Cops here in michigan are now using those new radars, and unless your radar is programmed for it, your radar won't detect anything.

 

How much does the V1 run.

 

Does anyone have any experience with the battery powered ones???
I am not sure if they are made by passport or escort, but i was wondering what the quality/ battery life on these is..... seems like a good alternative for hardwiring. Just dont want to give up a lighter outlet for a radar detector and dont like the wires.

 

Im up here in Canada and was thinking of getting but where do you guyz put it cause when I get my Cobalt im gonna be drivin fast and I dont want a ticket :P If anyone can show me a pic of where its instaled and where the arrows show up it would be reall cool

 

I recently got the V1 and love it. At first it picked up a lot of junk, but now that I played it with it, seems to work great.

 

escort passport FTW

 

God I wish these weren't so expensive. Cause I really need one.

 

how much did you spend on it?

 

They are $400 for the V1

 

Thats a little expensive but it sounds like its worth it. I might have to look into one of those.

 

When i started my first job ever two years ago it was the very first thing i bought.

 

v1 and escorts both work great. only difference are the arrows. i couldn't care less in which direction the cop is, if i hear my **** go off i'm slowing down...period.

check out this link for test of different radar detectors.

Between the two I'd get escort because i'd hide the valentine to cover how ugly it looks, which would kill the purpose of the arrows. :P

 

just to let u kno i have a uniden its like 30 bucks that i bought for 15 off my friend its old but it saved me from many tickets so i think there all the same to really to tell u the truth no point in spending that much and stop driving so fast go to the track. save ur money buy a 30 buck radar detector and buy something nice for ur ride. and 1 thing radars dont stop people complaining a lady can call in a car and a cop can look for u either way so no point in my opinion.
