While I have a V1 in my SUV, I don't like having an expensive target for theft in an open/soft top car. I bought a cheap cordless radar detector for my Box (Radar hawk brand) which looks good and does the job for around here. If I lived in a big city I could see the need for a more sophisticated unit, but mine does the job for most radar and laser shots around here (not much extraneous radar pollution). No cops at all in the mountains, where the Box really gets flogged. This cheapie is expendable/not a target for thieves.

I've had 2 tickets in the past 10 years - both when I didn't have a detector, even though I use one 95% of the time.
