V1 APPEARANCE =

Plus I found the message on the brick rather helpful for RadarKing.

That wasn't funny at all, like Family Guy (anyone get that reference?) Try again. We should make a new poll: "Should RadarKing be banned?"

Poll: Which Radar Detector is the Best? V1 or Escort 8500 X50.

V1 (Valentine One) 36 41.86%

Escort 8500 X50 50 58.14%

Voters: 86
EXCEPT POLLS ARE MEANINGLESS YOU DOUCHE. HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO REPEAT THIS? NO ONE CARES ABOUT POLLS AND NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR COPY/PASTES. SOME PEOPLE THINK THE X50 IS BETTER FOR A HOST OF REASONS, AND SOME PEOPLE THINK THE V1 IS BETTER. THEIR PERFORMANCE IS SO CLOSE THAT IT'S ALL ABOUT PERSONAL PREFERENCE. STOP BEING AN @SS AND GO TROLL ELSEWHERE.

Been busy, you know, having a life.... nevermind, you wouldn't understand. I'll get them up when I get a chance.

I'm still waiting for YOU to tell me how you think the V1 could be improved, how the measurements you provided for the radar detectors are actually comparable (note: I'm not asking WHERE you got them from, I'm asking how you think they are comparable), and what you think about the fact that most people think the V1 looks like something Stalin designed and used.

Hmmm? Right, no response.

Wow, I can't believe this is still going on...radarqueen just doesn't give up

I'm not going to argue anymore...its just not worth it...I could care less if the votes were 1000 to 1 in favor of the V1...I like my escort and I'm happy with it and I'm glad I returned my V1. I have more important things to do with my time.

radarqueen, you need to find a new hobby...

im still waiting for a detector that is effective against my lidar...

oh yea, none
im glad you've been audibly alerted that your speed has been confirmed...... Press Hard, you're making 5 copies


Oh, I find it a bit funny that "ivenevertouchedaRADERgunKING" has resorted to childish bull**** name-calling. (S)he talks like a scientist, but doesn’t know how to measure the cubic size of an irregular object, though is happy to boast his half-assed product as being superior. "Come look at my site, we published numbers that says ours is the best!" Yea, ok chump... I belong to, and post, on nearly 20 forums. Your bull**** will be spread far and wide. If it keeps one person from not buying YOUR product, I will be satisfied. Your company is operating on a mystique constructed only of your own bull****, that takes advantage of mindless liberal ******, like yourself. Go to hell. And, if you want my info so you can get in touch with me, PM me I'll gladly supply you with my number and address so I can experience, first hand, your best "your mama" lines you use to promote a ****-*** product

I don't recall anyone stating that the X50 displaced a lesser volume of air than the V1 in your car. The comments were that the X50 appears smaller, which is all that matters. A more important "size" measurement would be blocked front area by the face (width x height of the detector). The brick from the 80s V1 looked much larger hanging in my car than the X50.

I'm convinced that RadarQueen is the child of that handicapped-looking guy on the front page of the V1 site.
