lots of good info on there site. I think im gonna get the 8500 in the spring for myself.
just something i think.
I got a speeding ticket and it was $300 and i had a ~$150 cobra. Id spend as much money as i can or save it up and get the best out there now. hence why im getting the 8500. even thought it's $300 it's worth it if it saves me acouple times from a ticket.

I don't really know what's the best radar detector. I drive about 5 miles under the speed limit. I know a lot of people that travel a lot, like business people, truckers, etc, and they say that the Valentine One is the one that picks up the radar/laser the best.
On a road trip with my friends to Las vegas, I've seen the Passport 8500 in action and it picked up the radar and laser very well.

Valentine One. By far the best (IMO). I have had passports & escorts, the V1 is far superior. It tracks multiple "bogeys" and even tells you the direction that the radar signal is coming from.
You won't find under 100 bucks, but they are worth every penny.
