Thanks Willie and John for sharing --

yes- - I totally agree that 500e's excessive highway speeds are just plain difficult to prevent (I've honestly explained this to my wife to her disbelief)...and the absence of traffic on roadways are a rarity these days

Willie- congrats on acquiring Mark's 500e! ...suggest looking to the V1 for your radar detector. Do a search for Valentine 1 or V1 and a strong majority here think that V1 is worlds above anything else on the market.

...you guys now have me re-thinking my December vacation road trip plans with the e500, 'cause I definitely do not have the discipline to stay within the legal speed limits for a 10 hour jaunt from N Cal to Baja Mexico

have a great day
