    Ah yes, West Virginia, arguably the easiest state to speed in due to lack of police presence and tactics. Welcome to the forum.

    Welcome to the Forum

    the 8500 is a nice detector
    a great starter and, when you inevitably upgrade, a fine backup

    Did you buy from Escort ?

    I have driven w/a Passport 8500 and the Passport X50 and both are good detectors IMO. Welcome to our forum
