Default Which Radar Detector are you using?

Like it says. . . which are you using? State your model, how long you've had it, and your thoughts on it.

I'm a Passport 8500 blue x50 guy myself in both my cars...

Escort bought Bel so now they are the same company, just FYI.

I use A K40 RD850 in my Box and a K40 Calibre DL w/ LD5500BT in my RR Sport

www.k40.com

I have been selling and Installing K40 for 10 years no and they make great stuff
Built in is on the expensive side 899-1699 but the dash mount is 300.00 comes with a speeding ticket guarentee and works great!

I use the Passport 8500 x50 and one 5 hour trip from norcal to socal with it made me feel like I got my money's worth.

Yeah, I have an Escort Passport 8500 x50, as well. Bought if for $180 at Best Buy when I was an employee... I disabled X and K band. It works great. I don't get the 2-3 mile range on the highway like some people have said.
