Hi all just joined... Picked up a 2013 Mustang GT. # days after buying it, I was up on the MASS Pike and got nabbed speeding clocked doing 85 in a 65 w LIDAR. I am pi$$ed.
Want to get some armor and looking into what tools are available like Radar/laser detectors and laser jammers. I hear in NY, laser jammers are not illegal yet. I also hear social tools like Escort live and trapster on DROIDS and Iphones are pretty powerful. Don’t want to spend a million dollars on this.

At the end of the day, I want something that works. Any recommendations?

LOL, Well, I did have connections to the local police if you know what I mean, didn't help... The MASS state police did not even blink an eye.. As for the Glove box, I guess your right...

No other words of wisdom?

Next time you a stopped for allegedly going over the speed limit.
Politely ask the officer if they have thier most recent calibration
certificate of their radar equiptment. After he looks at you strangely
he'll probably say no. Fight the summons in court based on the
accuracy of the equipment. 9 out of 10 you will get a reduced fine
or dismissal. Good luck .

A few years ago I bought a radar detector from Cobra ESD 7400. Its a really basic one with 9 bands and I paid around $30 for it. It does seem to work fairly well most of the time. I do get a lot of false alarms on the highway but several times it started going nuts when I was approaching a hidden cop car. I guess some of the really expensive detectors such as Valentine One or Escorts will have a ton of awesome features and more bands but they do carry a hefty price on them. Definitely get one that will fit your needs. Check out reviews on amazon. And keep in mind that a radar detector can only do so much. Good luck and welcome!!

trust me, go for something more expensive than this, it'll be worth the money with less hassle
