Come on a know a good bunch of you guys have had one or currently have one. While I don't speed all the time, I do drive over the speed limit at times because I'm late or I just want to get ahead of those clowns that drive below the speed limit.
I had a Radioshack one (piece of work model) for about 3 years. While it may have been that particular model, I must say that it saved me from an extraordinary fine or even jail time at least 5 times. That $89 was well spent. I did get a ticket once though but that was because I didn't trust it. It had been going haywire the whole day so I just said screw it. Little did I know that State Trooper was just around that curb.
I just spent $299 on a Escort Passport 8500 X50 and I must say that I'm impressed. It totally pwns that Radioshack one more than 20 times over. It freaking picks up the radar waves from over a mile away! With that Radioshack one 85% of the time I saw the cop before it even went off. With my Passport I don't even know where the cop is.
I would highly recommend it to any of you guys.
I got the one with the red led lights because I didn't want to spend an extra $25 for the blue version.
