If they're importing from Chinese Manufacturers they're counterfeit since Escort RDs are manufactured in Canada.

You know everyone complains about falsing. Personally i don't really care. I like to hear my radar beep for whatever reason!! Keeps me entertained in a monotonous driving environment.

I haven't much time to test it had it for about 1 week so far. I don't do much driving anyway, at least until i can get a darn job. I have been looking all over the place for a "your speed" sign... funny they always come up when you don't need them.

HMM, sounds like a scam since the Escorts are made in Canada, but for $40 it may be interesting to see what they are selling.

I entered my e-mail adress into the page and got an e-mail right away with a link to the same page that was posted. Smells very fishy, and the only way of ordering is talking with the guy directly.

Def smells like a scam.
