Depending on how often you get pulled over, this thing will pay for itself in time.
Yep, it's a steep price, but the money is going toward preventing you from spending on tickets. Heck, Escort offers a trade-in program so you can earn a credit on your old radar detector when upgrading and even a Limited Ticket Guarantee, which means Escort will pay your speeding ticket in certain situations. However, you do get plenty of bells and whistles with this radar detector, and Escort is a trusted brand. The thing isn't cheap, with prices typically around $700. We knew some mountain roads were in our future, so we snagged a Ford Bronco Everglades and hit the road. Our destination was the New River Gorge area of West Virginia, which, if you haven't been, is one of the most stunning areas east of the Rockies. The only issue is that often user-based alerts from, say, an hour ago mean the officer is already long gone. We tried it out and found connecting with the radar was quite easy, and the in-app experience was simple and informative. With the MKII, you can access community-based alerts for speed traps, police-spotted locations, and more via the companion app or directly through Wi-Fi.

There's also a handy mute button on the power cord base for when it gets real noisy.įor even more info and insight on your cruise, you can download the Drive Smarter app. The brightness of the display screen is adjustable, and you can set the sensitivity setting to a variety of driving situations-we kept it on either Auto or Highway. The power cord isn't terribly long, so if your outlet is far from the mounting location, it could be an issue.

Escort allows drivers to simply plug and play right into the 12-volt outlet. Blue directional arrows are designed to point to the source of the alert, but we found this didn't work occasionally or had a delay, just like with the MKI. The thing looks cool, too, perched sleekly on its magnetic mount. Here’s the blue directional arrow pointing out Smokey with the screen off.

In addition, a new DSP chip promises lightning-fast performance, dual-band Wi-Fi allows connected-car capability, and new filtering software reduces false alerts. This next generation improves on that nicely. This is important because in our test of the Escort Max 360c MKI, we noted the distance ranges were a bit less than those of the competitors. This is the second generation of Escort's Max 360c, and the first improvement touted by the brand is a 50 percent increase in range from the previous generation. Notable features on the Escort Max 360c MKII Higher-end detectors can filter these out, and with GPS lockout like the Escort has, the detector can "remember" where faulty alerts originate from. We had plenty of false alarms on our cross-country road trip, and these can be set off by anything from other vehicles' blind-spot monitors to strip-mall motion-detecting front doors-even other radar detectors. Now, not every alert your radar detector displays is a cop. You don't want to come across a police officer using laser-better prepare for the ticket then and there. You'll hear the term "laser" thrown around too, which is essentially a laser beam that is extremely difficult to pick up unless it's already pointed at your vehicle. X-bands might pop up, but they're very rarely used these days.
