Re: Suggested radar detector
Unless you're driving where their use is illegal, get the Valentine 1. A friend who's tried them all swears buy it. Once you've had the arrows, you'll never go back to anything else. All the GPS bells and whistles the other guys are hyping is are largely irrelevant. What you need is a detector that gives you ample warning and tells you where the bogies are and how many. The V-1 does that in spades. No one I know has ever regretted getting the V-1. Yes, it's a religion. :)

If you'll be driving where their use is illegal, get the Bell STi Driver. The same friend currently uses it and consistently avoids detection. He misses the arrows of the Valentine 1. In fact, he misses his entire Valentine 1 unit which the police seized after they detected it a year and a half ago. :(
