What kind of radar detector do you all have?
 

We have about $200-400 budgeted for one....

and with my wife being the speed demon she is and our next car topping out at 160mph, i think we might need a new one...something more trustable

any suggestions? been looking on ebay, and I found one with a ticket guarantee that comes with it...if you get any tickets the first year, they pay them...LOL...pretty fun shit

i don't have a radar detector, but my last nokia cell phone you could enter a code in to it turn it in to a radar detector. i wouldn't count on that though.

hahahaha, not sure if I would trust that

Wohhh don't spend it all in one place man. Thats a huge hit!!

I have a Valentine-1 and I love it :D

cheap solution? don't speed :glugglug

$400 for a radar detector? um, that is a pretty damn nice one for that price

it isn't just about speeding...i like to know when and where cops are

just the ex-drug dealer in me I guess

I own three of these and havent had a ticket in 20 years, even with having an '02 Vette.

I know, twisted is dead... :(

edit - I wil bet $1000.00 that I can nail ANYONE's correct speed using standard radar, regardless of your choice of "detectors". In fact, I will bet I can nail it BEFORE you have a clue I am on you. I am in Ohio, so anyone wanting to take the bet, come on over...

I bought one about 3 years ago in my honeymoon, for $99 at a RadioShack. It rocks! I never got a ticket, and I have a very heavy foot!...
Performance is not always directly proportional to cost.

Radar detectors are only a warning of radar being used IN THE AREA. BUT, many things will affect it. Most people are pussy's about it and every time it goes off they are on the brakes. If you want to avoid tickets, and really want to drive fast, buy a CB. Tune it to channel 19, and everybody in the general area will be telling your where every cop in the city/county/state is waiting for you.

i got an escort, got shot with a laser which did no good and got a ticket, i dont use it anymore, fucking thing would beep going through the city non stop

i got an escort to, but besides getting a ticket for speeding i got one for soliciting a prostitue......damn escorts.

LAPD captains card on the back of my Calif Drivers Licence...

That is my radar detector

I'm my own best radar detector, mind you the last time I was caught, I had a retired cop in the car. Gotta love professional courtesy. :thumbsup

yeah, you live in Ohio alright . . . that sure wouldn't work here.

You don't want a detector, you want a deflector, radar and laser, mounts in the grill

I got mine in a truck stop for about $50. It is no good in the city, but on the open road, it is great. Haven't gotten stopped once since I bought it (except in the city. Cop had a laser unit. Looked inside my window and said, "I wondered how you slowed down so fast." But a detector won't help with hand held laser. It will tell you that you were hit, but by then it is too late).

OK, my offer now extends to radar/laser deflectors.

$1,000.00 to ANYONE who comes here and wants to challenge whether or not I can clock your speed by either RADAR or LASER, regardless of the "detector" or "reflectoor" you think will avoid a ticket.

I wish I had one of those back in the day man......lolol

Just keep your right foot down to the floor...Cops'll never catch up. :1orglaugh
