I have a whistler pro 58, only 140 bucks and it's saved me plenty of times, although cops around here only use K and KA band, no laser that I know of...the STI Driver is the shiznit of detectors, it actually cloaks your vehicle from the radar...$450!

Uh, it doesn't cloak your vehicle, it only hides the radar from Radar Detector "detectors". Hmmmm....I smell a Klingon!

^^^ oh yeah...that's why truckers use them (it's illegal for an 18 wheeler to use a radar detector)...

you should also consider an active laser jammer in addition to a radar detector. i use a V1 for radar, Blinder M20 for laser.
