yeah that foul should have been called, but the outcome would have been the same regardless

not true...

3 foul shots since it was behind the arc.
just make the 1st 2, miss last one and tip in for 2 more points or another foul....

Thats a tie ball game.

or if they tip it in AND get fouled thats a potential 3 pt play and they win the game.

its never over with a 4 pt game, plenty of ways to get it.

V1 gives you the direction, but you miss out on the fun game I play with my Escort 8500..."Where's Waldo?"

You like the escort? People go back and forth on these two all the time. Talking with a guy at work yesterday and he loves his V1.

I like mine. I have had two in the past (including the one now) but I haven't ever seen a V1 so I can't tell you which is better. I know the V1 is ugly.

meh.... V1 is nice cuz of the arrows but maybe not nice enough to dismiss an escort.

I personally have an 8500 that I got on discount from best buy when I worked there over winter break in 07. I love it, it has saved my ass several times on the highway and always gives me a warning well in advance leaving me plenty of time to slow down and get into the right lane before I even see the cop.

I would look at getting a 9500i, that GPS lockout seems like a much better feature to have than arrows. Besides, muting the damn thing every time I pass a Walgreens is just getting fucking old now so do yourself a favor and just pick one up before it drives you nuts.

Amazon has some like new 9500i's well under $400.

LoL, it was about 40 until the first time they came back, a restore from the 20th, then another 5 to restart until right before it went down. Not that I was refreshing every few minutes or anything...

Like the looks of the 9500i better but the V1 seems to get the best reviews. Seems like you can't go wrong with either one. The arrow feature is nice though

When i finally got in, the first post in this section was from carlos about Fluid. I was like WTF? At least we are back. I am so addicted to this forum. Damn! Was messing around on 6speedonline while waiting.
