Where is that? I'm gonna' go out on a limb and say some place like Allyourmoneyisourssachusetts?
We got those booted out of Jersey about a year ago. One of the first times I call recall New Jerseyans in angry open revolt. The politicians became scared. We need to do that more.
Better than Escort? I have 20 years brand loyalty there. Plus I like the fact they can track numerous radar signals simultaneously, which i think is an invaluable feature.
I'm strongly looking into getting the Escort Max 360, it has a counter and direction indicator along with GPS and many other new technologies that the V1 does not.
Another option is the Stinger VIP, but $3k for a radar/laser is crazy.
I cant justify that either, $600 for a radar detector, what's the point? It's paid for itself after I get out of the 5th ticket? Pass.

While tix may only be a hundred or so bucks, the hike in insurance premiums averages out to 10%. So more like 1-2 tickets. So if you're the kind of person with a heavy foot who knows he's gonna get tickets unless he uses all possible mitigating factors, I could see the benefit even if the detector does cost $600
When was the last time you got speeding tickets?
Last speeding ticket I got was 15-20 mph over I would guess. It got talked down to 5mph over, but with the ticket fine and court surchages and fees it was around $400. And that's before insurance gets involved.

I have never gotten out of a court room for under $200 no matter how minor I plead it down to.
I've only received two speeding tickets in my life, both of them in Vermont, where speeding tickets are viewed as key sources of revenue, rather than safety measure.
My radar detectors have saved me from many tickets over the years, but I've bought them used for about $150'ish on EBAY (new cost ~$400).
Where the hades was that? I've never paid anything remotely close to that, and neither time I received a ticket did my insurance go up.
pulled over for 70 mph over.......
Wow. How did you get out of that one?

Was pulled over on my motorcycle going up to Americade motorcycle rally. Was accused of doing 120 in a 55. It was not my group, but we had a Kawasaki green bike in our group (it was carrying 2 people). The bike the trooper was looking for was a kawasaki green bike (but only a driver) that did pass us at the accused 120.
After convincing him we were ONLY doing 90 he let us go as we pointed out every green bike that rode by.
Ha. Getting off for 35 mph over the limit is not bad either.
Love the 75mph speed limit up here. Cruise at 80-85 and the troopers just wave as they pass ya.
