Yes arrows are awesome and K band range is amazing. I can’t say the same about Ka band which most of the troopers use. On the 1-90 heading towards albany when the Ka band went off i had about 5 seconds to slow down from 100+ to 70 before I saw the cop. Again. arrows make all the diff. ---

Don’t you need something worth speeding on to get a radar detector? or does it come along when your dick riding in which case the V1 would look nice in my car. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/which-radar-dectector-should-i-buy/21485.md?page=2)
