Additionally it seems pretty cheap if it has any overall effectiveness. I've also emailed the seller to see if you can get additional heads (and what their cost would be) to make it a 4 head unit which may give a better performance. I'm not really expecting a lot here in terms of performance but sometimes you can get a surprise. FYI this is not an old Mimic rebadged but appears to be something entirely different than most of the knockoffs I've seen so far though it is still a Blinder copy. It came direct from the factory.

Buffalo NY. For the record my F150 has a dull matte gray grill and front bumper should actually be much easier to cover than my Grand Marquis. My GM has a chrome front grill, the headlights, the plate, seperate parking lights which are semi reflective. The F150 is only a V6 so it has a smaller front grill than the ones with the bigger engines. It is not one of those with all that fancy chrome trim. It has no fog lights. Only things reflective are the Ford logo, the headlights and the front plate. I situated the heads on the grill trying to middle them up as much as I could with all the reflective parts.

Lol.... good luck. Get it tested before you hit the road with it and don't invest till you know it does SOMETHING besides being worthless.

Just to clear things up. I certainly don't plan on trusting it like I do the Blinder which I've already had plenty of encounters with. I don't expect it to outperform the Blinder either. Its a lot harder to get the V6 truck up to something where you're a speed target, plus a green F150 without any flash isn't a cop magnet. Isn't like the Grand Marquis where you're doing 80 before you even realize it. I may run across a cop using Laser before I have it tested but I'm not going to be making 85 mph passes to test that it works either. From experience I can however pretty much speculate that if they target me it is working if they keep shooting until I kill it (but I'm not going to JTG if it can perform that well, something I don't hold out all that much hope for). As I said if anyone around here has a gun or two to test it with I'm more than happy to bring it along. Anyway at $110 it is fairly reasonable in cost to test. I'd be throwing away just that much if I bought a Cobra detector to test and this is somewhat more interesting.

You should make sure it does not give Jam codes on the LTI or Truspeed before you put this thing into action on the T'way.

Unless of course you are going to make a video Like fordfocus. It was pretty entertaining hearing him tell outrun that he could not go to Jail.

Did Neil make this Jammer

Good point, jam codes did not cross my mind. As I say I rarely drive the truck anyway except when I'm picking stuff up. My wife usually takes it to work. Locals have an old LTI circa late 90s they use so infrequently I doubt they'd know what a jam code was and probably have never encountered it (if that model even had one). If they pull it out a dozen times in the spring and summer I'm surprised. Ultralyte is by far the most common gun I see up on the Thruway. Again, green work truck version of the F150 is not likely to be a primary target as it is.

Yea, staties use Truspeeds or LRBs. Make sure you listen to samq45.

So far due to winter haven't been able to line up any sort of test but other than that the unit has appeared to function as it should. That being it hasn't died from cold/snow/ice. Like most devices it gets a false from the EZ Pass lane if it is hit at the right angle, so at least it alerts and presumably fires back. I haven't tried testing it with a remote control as it is simply too cold out and my wife is driving the truck at the moment.

One of my secondary car's Blinder M20 heads died this past week leaving room for something new but I'll probably do an M27 as at least I've had real world experiences with the Blinders working in the past on multiple cars, though a CT-12 4 head would cost half as much. I still may buy 2 more heads for the Ct-12 for the F150.

I'd really like to test it to see how well it does, as if it provides any protection at $110 it is a steal.
