RE: radar detectors???
Please guys these things are a waste of your hard earned money. Your money could be well spent on other mods to your mustangs. I am an officer and they are easily defeated, I mean really easy. Your more apt to get cited if your stopped with a one of these units visible in the car. A lost cause in my book, with all due respect. Drive smart(read btw the lines) and safe. Just a thought...FYI

Notice this was his first post. I wouldn't have expect anything less from him. I don't speed, I just like the recreation of knowing where they are.

I have an escort passport 9500 with the gps. It tells me how fast I'm going LOL! Seriously, it's pretty cool. I don't really drive any differently than I did before but it lets me know when there are police units around me which I think is really valuable. Now I know where they sit in the areas around where I work and can adjust my speed accordingly. The other day it went off and a policeman on a motorcycle was speeding up the shoulder of the highway at about 80mph. I was glad that I knew he was there.
I can't really say that it has saved my butt but it really gives me piece of mind knowing when there are units around. And it's funny but I get hit a lot with instant on. It's given me a sense of how the cops use this to hit you and find out your speed quickly then follow you hiding in traffic waiting to spring on you.
I'm glad I have mine.

They work and they dont work. If your going to speed either way, GET ONE! Where i live, in a 20 min drive you can go through evesham police, medford police, medford lakes, state troopers, and one more...cant think of the town, o well. my rd works for all them minus medford lakes, they keep theirs off till you go by and then theytag you...
however, they work great on the EXPRESSWAY.
I have a passport s2 wireless...
so far i can say its saved me atleast 10 times where i was gong atleast 10 over and i was able to slow down in time.

I have a Valentine 1 myself and am very happy with it. Like an above poster, I don't speed but I am nosey.
To the Officers that say it won't save you, I disagree. At least for me, being in a city environment, I catch the reflections of Officers lighting up other cars around me (ahead, behind, etc.) all the time.
