I have the V1. I just sent it back in to be updated to the latest and greatest software. The new cars and trucks on the road use radar in the cruise control and space distance features and just clog up the radar with false alarms. The update helped, but there are still tons of false alerts. I just don't think there are 4 cops in front and 5 behind at a time all blasting radar.

I only use my radar detector on road trips. It has saved me from a few revenue traps over the last 14 years of road trips. I have driven out to California 3 times, the east coast twice, Salt Lake City, Colorado and Michigan and Hershey PA and more.

Radar detectors may will become totally useless due to the new cars and trucks emitting so much radar.
