"The 9500ix may be an expensive radar detector but it performs leaps and bounds over my older Cobra. There is literally no comparison.



I live in a rural area where there are very few cars on the roads. With my old Cobra, early warnings were far and few as it wouldn't detect any radar until it was …"  Read Full Review »
