Do you use it?
I'm curious how many CP members use radar detecting or lidar defeating technology. I know 2 "states" (DC and Virginia) prohibit the use of detectors, about a dozen states prohibit lidar jamming and the feds prohibit all radar jamming.

So let's hear it CP what kind of setup do you use? Any good stories just missing a ticket? Poll forthcoming.

My Ram, has a pretty small engine (4.7) compared to the huge frontal area of the truck, so that little motor really works hard at higher speeds, especially into the wind.
At 75, it will get about 10mpg in 4th, but at 65 it gets about 15 in 4th. It is a stick, so 5th gear is basically overdrive and really kills it. It gets better mileage at 3000rpm in 4th than it does at 1800 rpm in 5th when it is lugging.

I go 5 miles over the limit in good weather. Most cops are told to target 5+...

5-7 miles over haven't had a ticket since high school. Doesn't mean I don't speed every once in a while. I have done over a 100 mph every once in a while.

btw, you forgot the Gaz option.
Tracking radar, the military has the cool toys.
In the HAWK system we called it the HPI, High Powered Illuminator. The HPI also had a TAS Camera, Tracking Adjunct Sensor. We could get a visual lock on just about any target then slave the HPI to the TAS, turn the HPI transmitter on and blast it with a thousand plus Watts of radiation. We could literally cook birds out of the sky with it.
And yes, such a system would to a number on any traffic radar it locked on to.

If you do the math, speeding doesn't really do much unless it's a very long trip.

I call it selective speeding, and I'm a master at it. I've got 1 speeding ticket in the last several years and it was early in the morning, I was trying to pass a truck before my exit, and got popped because my dumbass didn't see the cop. Told him he had me dead to rights, and accepted the ticket. Otherwise, by using the same methods you yourself employ, I have thus far avoided any other tickets. I've thought about getting a detector, and I'm willing to pay top dollar for one, I just don't know what really works anymore with how fast technology moves.

I try to stay just under 80 for longer drives... it cuts down the ~200 mile trip to Omaha by about 20 minutes and at least at one time in MO, the difference between 9 over and 10 over was like $30 (IIRC), so the logical thing would be to either drive at 79 or 85+ (not that it never happens... ).
Heh, I've had the same conversation with my wife. I'm either doing 78 or around 89. If you're gonna risk it, you may as well run.
