Escort Passport 8500 - Reviews both original and X50

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2005

Great.... When it works.

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great radar detector; saved me MANY times. Incredible sensitivity picks up over hills! Buy an extended-service plan or cheap because they seem to fail after a year or two.
Review: BACKGROUND

I have had Escort Radar detectors all the way back since they were owned by Cincinnati Radar and the detector had an analog signal meter and was the size of a the entire box the new ones come in.

I've since been...
