V1.

Used it driving from Cincinnati to Chicago and back.

Then this year from Cincinnati to Louisana. Lead over 25 SRT-4's at 80-90 MPH... No tickets.

Cobra.
Used every day from Kansas City to Whiteman AFB.
It goes off in the usual places. But if it goes off out of nowhere there is usually a cop sitting ahead.

I use an Escort 8500. No tickets and very few false alarms. When she goes off you'd better slow down.

Agreed. I drive coast to coast once or twice a year. Set the cruise on 5 over. Sometimes I'll pick up a polish birddog.

V1, but I still rely on my eyes no matter if I have a RD or not with me.

The Escort is what i have and use it hasn't failed me yet but i still respect the know speed traps, and slower down in those areas even with the Rader detector. Even the escort can't replace knowledge.
