I never said you don't get what you pay for when it comes to radar detectors so I don't know why you assume I disregarded that.

Seems like you live in Texas where you have to take a highway anytime you want to go somewhere, where I live I could spend a whole month and not even have to break 35mph. I'm not going to spend a bunch of money on something that I won't use that often. Of course, some people always have to have the best, but not me.

Also, by your same logic, why don't you pony up for the Escort 9500ci instead of cheaping out on the $500 junk. Seems to be ~$2000 but you get what you pay for.
Says he won't spend money on something he won't use that often. Buys and M4 and typically can't break 35mph where he lives.

I don't think you're a dumb ass or a hypocrite. I think that you often make decisions without fulling thinking them through. Same thing for car forum posts. Nothing wrong with that by the way.

I agree with davis though, if you're going to radar up, go for the quality units.
I didn't say I typically can't break 35mph, I said I don't have to. I could drive Lake Shore Drive, Lower Wacker at good speeds and Road America/Autobahn CC are within a few hours of me. I also didn't buy an M4 just to go fast, if that were the only priority I wouldn't have gotten the car in the first place.

Thanks for diagnosing someone's life based on a few forum posts, too. Really impactful.
