I went with the Escort 9500ix. The Valentine was temping, but the escort has one major feature no one else offers... GPS.
The unit is learning all the time. Some of the traffic lights have K band to check for vehicles and keep the light green. The unit memorizes the signal and location and if it continues to see the same freq at that location, it will block out the signal.
I can add speed traps and as I get closer, it will pop up and remind me, including the distance.. 1300 ft out.
Sweet!
