Best Radar Detector

I have a valentine 1 and have had it for about 3 years now, it has saved my rear end from getting a ticket quite a few times but IMO all the radar detectors are obsolete these days cause almost all cops use "instant On" now. Your detector now is only good to tell you "get ready to pull over buddy".
If I was you i'd just buy them a portable navi unit such as Garmin, that is if they dont have OEM nav.

Don't screw around with the cheapies, get a good one. My preference is the Escort 8500, Valentine is also good. They cost more but they are worth every penny.

I have a Valentine 1 since 2003. Worth every penny.

I had a 8500, now a V1 for about 4 years. Love it! V1 rated the best still.

That said, V1 all the way. Over the years, I had both and love the V1. Only one I'll every own.
And yeah, you may want to try a search. This has been discussed many, many times...
