I cannot speak on behalf of you guys, but there have been several times where a cop is sitting in the medium running radar, my detector picks him up from a mile or two away, and I am able to slow down and pass the cop under the speed limit. There have been several times on I-95 where I was doing 100+, the detector goes off, and I get on the brakes hard, only to pass a cop 30 seconds later.
It's really personal preference, I never thought that I would want a radar detector. Then I got one as a gift, and love it. The Valentine One is arguably the best radar detector, but it is also one of the most expensive. I personally use the Bel Vector 960 and I'm very happy with it. Tons of features, few false alarms, and easily customizable.
