    Re: My ix got owned by QT today.

    Which is exactly what happens with any "police" operated speed trap. You get a ticket for going 5 over by an officer collecting money for his employer (city). You then go in front of a judge payed by...

    Re: Strange KA encounter

    I don't think I've ever gotten a false on KA band. Usually if I get a KA band alert, I always respond. :)
  3. Re: 9500ix Full blast K band but not a peep from the detector

    Its by far one of the best features, and keeps you under 20mph in parking lots. ;)[/QUOTE]

    Brilliant feature. Parking lots are one of the places the V1 drives me nutty. I don't like having to...

  5. 9500ix Full blast K band but not a peep from the detector

    Hey folks,

    I recently picked up an escort 9500ix with a serial in the 22xxx range. I updated the firmware to the latest version as well. I'm having an interesting phenomenon.

    If I am in auto...

    Re: 9500ix auto lockout

    I love the idea of auto-lockout. Unfortunately, in my city I don't think it would work. The cops here sit in the same 5 spots 24/7 writing tickets. Right behind the 50 to 25mph change.

    Re: First time GPS buyer needs advice

    I bought my Garmin 760 right around the time the 265WT was announced. I figured if that lower end unit has the next turn arrow feature, surely they'll bring it to the high end systems like the 760...

    Re: First time GPS buyer needs advice

    I have both a Nuvi 760 and a TomTom 930 (I'm a gadget nerd what can I say). I've also previously used other units from both manufacturers. I agree TeleAtlas maps definitely used to be awful, however...

    Re: First time GPS buyer needs advice

    No it doesn't. Sure you can insert a via point into a route, but try doing that while you are on a route.

    Trust me, the detour functionality on the Nuvis (except the Nuvi 5000) is pathetic to...

    Re: First time GPS buyer needs advice

    Um, I understand you like your Garmin but high end TomTom units are awsome.

    What if you know that a certain highway is closed, try to avoid a road or a highway on your Garmin.

    You got it. The point of the rabbit is he is the one who should get the ticket. If the rabbit is a cop, then chances are he won't be getting pulled over, you will.

    In that case the x50, 9500i etc and so forth should be run in Auto mode as thats how they ship. No more highway mode :) Only the V1 gets big A mode because it ships that way hehe

    I suspect that the scatter situation is not happening very often. My best guess is that the LEO is trying to target you from too far away. If you have a good detector like a V1, there is a chance you...

    Yeah, I wouldn't lower it... it will only get damaged.

    My car is stock but fairly low I have enough trouble as is. Then again, I live in Cleveland Ohio where the potholes are as big as Lake Erie.
