    if you can't be bothered to turn your fucking head around when you're backing up, you shouldn't be driving.

    EDIT: kinda neat though

          and that's one feature I don't care for...

          the BT and GPS

          Radar would be astounding...

            One can only hope. Competition is good. Everyone swears by their V1, so much so that I was going to go against my test drive with the 9500i to get one. (Alex Roy uses one, how much of an endorsement is that?) I ended up buying the Escort anyways...

            Then bought another (9500ix). I'll probably be a customer for life, unless someone can one-up them. I can't really think of any other features that I would want for the price. $500 is a lot of $$.

            Like I was saying, everyone swears by the V1, I could care less about arrows, or how many bogeys are around, not to mention all the false alarms. If there's ONE emitter within range, I usually chill out, and it's fun to look around for the bogey anyways. And I like my radar detector to be quiet, unless it's ABSOLUTELY necessary. Being able to lock out that signal from the 7-11 that I pass by ALL THE TIME is awesome. But wait, there's more! Even though you locked out that signal at that GPS spot, if a new signal shows up (say, a Ka band source getting his donuts for the morning), you still get an alert!
            Dude, I love this thing.

            Don't get me started on the database of Red light/speed cameras.

            (I don't run red lights, but sometimes there's that really short yellow that you didn't anticipate on a 55 mph stretch; do I lock up the brakes, or just blow it? I can better make that decision, now)

              Let me know when it blows shit drivers off the road.

              A detector would make a big difference.

                  I put a backup camera on my grandfathers car because he physically can't turn his head around to backup.

                  Granted, at the same time, he shouldn't be driving...
