Thread: Little help

  1. #1

    Default Little help

    Hi for about a week I have been reading about radar detectors. I can't decide which one I want, money is not an issue at all. I live in Colorado and have a problem with speeding 25-30 over... I was wondering if you guys could help pick one for me im debating between a v1 or escort x50 blue I honestly can't decide. Just looking for a second opinion thanks.

    IMO V1, if you are an enthusiast detector user -- the arrows and bogey counter are spectacular!

    With those kinds of numbers over the PSL I'm seeing a V1 and jammer in your future.

    I live in boulder most of my driving is on the highway, the main road I really travel is the diagonal which is basically a 12 mile straight shot from boulder to longmont. I travel it about 2 times a day and its a great road to "speed" on and the cops all sit in the same spot at the end of the month... lol

    Highway? V1 is your calling ;-)

    The road you describe should be fine with any competent (i.e. non-Cobra) detector though.
