It still doesn't replace my Redline in all areas, the Redline is still the best for extreme range or off-axis shots.

I have two Beltronics STiR's on the way too, so I'll install one in the Z and use the V1 as well. Possibly the STiR and the Redline if I'm doing a run through the mountains or something, otherwise the Redline will stay in the daily.

Remember, a great radar detector is only half the battle. Pretty much every area in North America is using LIDAR now, so a LIDAR jammer is basically a must-have these days. Unless you really like the speed limit and cruise control
I don't know if it's cool to add a link to another site here, so I understand if the moderators choose to remove it, but Edconline has posted up a nice review of the V1/YaV1 combo at the link below.

Two days with the Valentine One - Radar Detector & Laser Jammer Forum - RDForum - RadarDetectorForum

I'm in the process of going down pretty much the same route.
