    Where are ESCORT Radar Detectors made?
    ESCORT Radar Detectors are designed, marketed and manufactured right here in North America.



    No hard feelings, just thought it was funny.

    And RDs are only illegal in certain provinces, not all of Canada. On balance, I think you owe Escort, inc. an apology.

    Escort is located near Cincinnati Ohio. Escort designs, markets and sells their products from that location. The actual manufacturing of their products is done in Canada.

    The time to start worrying is when you start seeing Escorts with a label that reads "Made in China" :roll:
