Pretty Nifty(The Radar Detector)
 
so i got it the other night finally along with my g/f's present. but anyway its pretty cool, i already drove around town a few times to test it and stuff. it didnt go off at any stores(auto door openers) and it went off when i passed a cop(sitting along the road). i like it when it goes off and it has the strength meter bar and then the mph the car is at beside it. also the voice alerts and such. i've got it all pretty much figured out, just now i got to get down the different alert tones. btw its the Escort 9500I. i've got the Mod itch now :D just last week i orderd that, and my rear tires/rims 17x10.5 black bullitts and nitto drag radial tires(got them in too). and today i orderd the catback and O/R h-pipe and then this friday i will be ordering my GT bumper.

you know all a fuzz buster dose is let you know that you are going to get pulled over if you are speeding.

yeah, i wasnt expecting it or anything to make me "invinsable" from the police. im just wanting a heads up.

you know that they do sell ones that send a fals reading to the radar gun.

what do you mean? do you mean false readings to the detector? or the police officers radar gun?

officer4c13 02-05-2008 07:18 PM
to the radar gun, you can set them up so if you are doing any speed it will register on the officers radar gun that you are doing the speed limit.

officer4c13 02-05-2008 07:20 PM
they are agenst the law in some states though.

guessing your talking about radar jammers such as rocky mountain which are illegal in most states. Is that what your talking about?

ya my mustang is just siting tell the snow is atleast off the road and i can get a new heater core. and i would get a radar detector to but only because it is hard not to speed in a mustang. i try to do the speed limit everywaer exept the jurisdiction i work in.

yeah, the snow is pretty much gone now. but were suppose to get some tonight i think. right now its just flooded everywhere. but i hope it snows, and besides my mustang will be sitting till its done anyway(well except to go to the shops and etc.). Yeah it is hard not to speed in a mustang, for some reason i can be going 60 in a 55 in my mustang and it seems im going slow and then i get in the jeep and go 60 and it seems fast. lol... maybe im going nuts :rolleyes:

Yeah I knew some guys in Atl that had a radar jammer that would block the radar/laser back to the cop. There like a real wide box looking thing, unless they have come a long way in the passed few years.

If Valentine Radar/Laser Detectors werent so much money I would own one of those!

Just curious, but why did you decide to go with the drag radials? I don't see you really spinning the tires much to really need to spend the extra dough. But it's your money.

Badfish 02-06-2008 09:46 AM
