Re: Which Radar Detector?

Obviously the V1 seems to be the general consensus. I can't disagree; I have owned mine for almost 8 years and it is still the best product I have ever bought. I am not just talking radar detectors, I am talking everything I have ever purchased.

For me, it isn't just about the detector either. I had mine for almost 6 years and it started having issues. The factory warranty is one year so I knew that I was WAY outside that. I called up their customer service, gave them my serial number, and explained my problem. They said that there was an update available for my detector, so I sent it in with a check to cover the cost of the upgrade hoping that it would fix the problem.

I sent it FedEx next day on Monday morning. I had it back by 9:30am Wednesday morning because they shipped it back to me the same way I had shipped it to them. Inside the package was a note from the tech who did the upgrade saying that they hadn't seen the issues that mine was exhibiting before, so they simply upgraded it for free.

I was literally blown away. So honestly it isn't just about the quality of the unit, it is about the customer service that goes with it. They made me a lifelong customer with that experience. I know have one of them in every car that I have.
