With that being said each to there own, it up to you just my 2 Cents.
Radar detectors aren't foolproof. They don't guarantee you won't get pinched for speeding. All radar detectors do is give you an edge. I've had 5 Escorts or V1s since my 1980 280ZX. They have saved me countless tickets over the years. Not all of them...I've had a few...but last year alone, "Instant On" and everything, my PassPort saved me from getting two tickets, and that's about right...two tickets a year. It has MORE than paid for itself.
