yeah, I have the V1 in the TT now, but I was hoping the GPS would help with the speed cameras.

Default I've read...>

The 9500 is a little buggy....Not quite ready for prime time. You'll never go wrong with a V1...:-)

Default I am getting V1 and Lasertrack ( The improved lidatek le-30) . The laertrack also includes a garage

opener. To my knowledge it is the best laser avoidance system on the market. What it does is give you 5 seconds when the lazer is on you to slow down. After that the cop can radar you, but that 5 seconds should be more then enought time to slow down, it is also not illegal becuase it doesnt work like a radar jammers that send out radio waves which is illegal. The lasertrack does not send out any interfernce of any kind so it most likely will never be illegal!

I have read reviews on it and I am sold for two. One for me and one for my father. Regardless, I have spoken to the peopel that makes these and they are will do do a group buy so please let me know if you are intrested, they retial for 399.99 everywhere on the net. I will be getting these for about $320 each, so if you are intrested please call me. I will make a list and will be purchasing htem in a month so please let me know if you want to be on the list.

Default All those mentioned detectors are good Wayne but...

if you want to use in DC or VA get a BEL STI Driver. It has absolutely no "leakage" and cannot be detected by radar-detector detectors. Stealth to me is the most important feature of all, considering we live in this region. I don't suspect the laws to ever change. Still driving like you stole it? lol. I feel privledged to have sold you my chip! :P
