I heard from a reliable source that you got a ticket for speeding with that new detector, Joel. I haven't invested in one because I've heard none of them work 100%. I'll just watch my "heads up display speed" and keep my fingers crossed. Marshall, IMHO I think it's a waste of money.

The Escort Passport 8500 Just Got Better!
Introducing the all new ESCORT Passport 8500 X50 - the most advanced and sophisticated detector ever!
There's never been a detector like the Passport 8500 X50, and it's available in your choice of either a brilliant blue display or high-intensity red display.
Passport 8500 X50's patented Auto-SensitivityT mode intelligently distin-guishes real threats from other known sources of radar - virtually eliminating false alarms. Conventional Highway and City modes are also provided.
Passport 8500 X50's on-board computer can be reprogrammed to detect new radar and laser threats, making it a solid investment.
*** The blue display does cost more because of the additional expense in making the blue LED lights. There is NO DIFFERENCE in performance. ***
Details
X-treme Radar Range!
The Passport 8500 X50's new "V-Tuned" radar receiver provides extreme range on all radar; conventional and "instant-on" including POP mode, X-Band, and up to 50% more range on the all-important K and Ka bands than the original Passport 8500.
Digital Signal Processing (DSP) provides maximum range, with minimum false alarms.
New High-Performance Laser!
Passport 8500 X50's multiple high-performance laser sensors provide maximum laser warning, with superior off-axis protection. For the ultimate in laser protection, the Passport X50 may be paired with the Laser Shifter ZR3 .
3 High-Resolution Meter Modes
The Passport 8500 X50 provides 3 types of meter displays: standard bar graph, exclusive ExpertMeterT, and our new SpecDisplayT.
In ExpertMeterT mode the Passport X50 can identify band and relative signal strength on up to radar 8 signals simultaneously.
Or, choose our new SpecDisplayT and Passport X50 will show you the actual frequency of the radar signal.
Comes Fully Equipped
Passport 8500 X50 comes complete with a comprehensive owner's manual, quick-release windshield mount, built-in earphone jack, a coiled SmartCord, quick reference card, and an Escort travel case. A great choice for the motorcyclist that uses an intercom system.
