Radar Detector Mount

Looks like Uniden introduced two new detectors that initial test show are more sensitive than the Redline, the R1 and the R3. I would strongly consider these for a windshield mount for those with a 2017, if you go with a windshield mount.

SPEEDSKI- I sure will & Thank you for the information- update site.
We will be on the road about a month.
After Convention, we head for Florida, Navy Warfare Museum @ Fort Pierce
for a small reunion. Then a sightseeing back home.
For years America was on a CB & Detector Kick, everyone had one, Even New model vehicles, they were a add on. All trucker's used them and regular driver found how useful they can be. Not only for speeding tickets, but to avoided traffic jams, emergencies, etc..
I am most interested in the R D talking to each other. The R D book states : If you are travelling South, and others travelling North, with the same R D, you will be warned of any Speed Traps they pass & record the location. This, if works, is outstanding.
~BEST~

From the review, the R1 and R3 are the same size as the Redline/Magnum so there is hope that it will fit in the cutout. It will be interesting to see the results.

If you are looking into Escort Live, check out Waze which uses crowd sourcing to report the location of Police. In high density areas it works great, especially against laser.
I have seen mixed reviews on Escort Live so I would be interested in your experience especially how it compares to Waze.

Just today I had a huge save from my radar detector in a rental. I got hit with I/O and was able to hit the brakes and avoid a ticket. The cop pulled out but I don't think he was able to lock my speed because he didn't pull me over. The Magnum in the Jag would have alerted for sure but honestly I probably would have gotten pulled over in the Jag because it's not a family sedan.

Has anyone found a way to use a detector for a '17 F-type? I do like to keep the constabulatory in sight.

Or you can buy them used.

You will see some always on wires too, which are going to be good if you are attaching a dash cam with the parking mode for example. Not that good for RD though...

If you do get a multimeter and poke around you may mistake a switched power lead for an always-on lead. After engine shutoff my detector doesn't shut off immediately. There's a delay.
