what the heck is it

Scrambler?

valentine radar detector. nice. i got a older escort i need to upgrade.

yup, i currently got a k40 i bought in 2004, got 1 ticket since and they paid for it....

this one seems to be the best out of em all,

even tells you where they are at compared (front/ back/ sides)

IMO......

Those things should be ilegal to manufacture them, ilegal to sell them and ilegal to have one.

The only purpose of radar detector is "help" a driver break the law and make driving more unsafe for other drivers on the road.

If you really want to know how I feel..............

I feel like they should be Legal to have all day..just my opinion...war brand is this and how much they run?

its a valentine and run about 500. pretty much the best one you can buy along with an escort.

well if thats really how you feel, please stay in the right lane....:smokin:

Zoom zoom.....

I own a radar detector and I still only drive maybe 5 miles over the speed limit. I just like to know where they hide out at. My friend has one that lets you know when you are around a traffic light camera. That thing is sweet man. Wish I had one.

tell me about it, just got one form new orleans...110 bucks but stays off my record...still no moving violations for over 7 years@@

What's the make and model number on that thing, I need something like that driving back and forth to Houma down 90

Go to radarbusters.com

expect to pay around 400-500. The latest model is the v1 i think, and it's bad arse. my current unit. K40http://www.pwr-tech.com/images/parts/radar-K40-sm.jpg

lasted me 7 years and i've only gotten 1 ticket(in which they paid, up to a year after purchase)

i've taken that trip from laffy to houma plenty o times...and the worst part is the patterson area.i go through no problemos and always make good time. (less than an hour sometimes)

a tip on driving, with or without radars....

never EVER ride in the left lane,

never EVER speed(if you choose to do so) on an open road with no cars head of you.

delete

Is that a flux capacitor?

yes Marty!! LOL!

Thanks man! Yeh I always try and stay in the right lane had a trooper give me that piece of advice once

Totally agree.

thats understandable because old people drive SLOWWWWW

with the radar, i "use" other cars, especially those ahead of you. In theory, if a cop is zapping people, he should zap those ahead of you(or around you) first, thus giving you the warning , and alerting you.

also keep in mind, if a cop is using laser or "pop"radar(where he intermittenly zaps on/off, on off) sometimes it's inevitable to get a ticket. It doesnt block,jam, or alter the cops radar/laser signal in any bit, just alerts you when you/someone near you is being zapped.

Took the words right out my mouth haha

And that's how I got to be "old".

I do pass a lot of cars on the hwy.....but some pass me. Yes, I am mostly in the right lane..... that is the law now.

Oh, and if you don't share my feeling on radar....... you probably are the same drivers that feel driving 1 or 2 car lengths behind me doing 70 mph on the interstate is OK too.

Think safety first!

I try to drive the speed limit even on the interstate, so, I don't need a contraption to help me break the law.

........."if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying":p

I'm sure the only time you speed is close to 4pm when your about to be late for the early bird special at shoneys

If you ain't speeding....you ain't dying. :p

heres an example of the VALENTINE ONE in action

I know you don't speed....drivin' a Darge.

I got arrested once in Laplace for doing 119 on I-10.........oh my that wasn't fun!! I didn't even know the cop was back there......they had a roadblock ready On the bridge before the spillway.......can't outrun a radio!!!

Oh....BTW........I was in a Chrysler new Yorker, love me some 440 power!!!

The only reason tickets exist are to fund city bull****. Run up to Toledo soon and look at the brand new chargers all the cops have in these cities of 12. It's a racquet just like most other ****. Keep the honest man paying and the criminals collecting welfare. Our system is f***£*

Posted a few before. Just didn't like that statement. Sorry!

man no kiddin hun!! its just his view on radar detectors..opinions are like arse holes everybodys got one..this thread gonna get real interesting..haha:welcome:

Infraction in 3....2.....1.......

Boom!!!"

Don't apologize to me.... I'm not yer daddy

$50 for a Premium Membership would'a saved you the infraction you're about to get.

did i mention a cop gave it to me??free and..win x2 chaching!!!

$6 per month if folks do not want to commit to a year. In the gill net that would have been fine.

I couldn't agree more, well I could, but I wouldn't be making any sense.

I see the mods are still up. :cool: :rolleyes: :smokin:

Gotta wait a little longer to light it up

Like the thread says....."Look what I just picked up". ;)

The reason cops write tickets is mostly so they (the violator of state/parish/city laws) don't do it again although most do. Yes, some poor cities with a poor police department use tickets to fund their police force like Livonia and Sorrento, but it also helps make an attempt to keep the roads safer. Now as for the Chargers, police departments generally keep cars for around 4-6 years and then SELL them to Taxi companies or other departments and even civilians. The Crown Vics are about to stop being produced or have been ceased in production already. I may not be all right in this response, but come roll across me when I get on either with Gonzales Police or Sorrento Police, and I'll further explain it. I'd rather write a ticket to a speeder rather than an accident report with a fatality.

I apologize for my comment. Had a few tonight and took it to personal I guess. No one is a ***+** for their opinion. My bad

In the academy? Or fresh out?
