+1 man thats the best one out there but honestly I think they are a false sence of security and it will get you in the end either way

Either Escort or Valentine.
I have the Escort and love it, but I still got a ticket with it.

This should be in an off topic thread though, it has nothing to do with the S-line....

I got the V1 and mounted it above the passenger sun visor, then I got that EFU part that connects to LCD screen between the speed and tach and now all the V1 info shows there.. It also mutes the beeping below a certian speed so if I am at a light it stops beeping... It is awesome so far..

+1, I have an escort passport 8500, which does wonders and never fails to impress my friends. V1 is good too. The thing is, there isn't a detector in the world that can compete with a cop who switches on/off on the radar.

agreed ^^^ ... radar detectors are better for a lot of freeway driving/roadtrips where youll get cops posted at places or speed traps.
