Thedrive.com | Escort Max 4 Radar Detector: A Game Changer for Drivers
"Testing the Escort’s Max 4 for over a month was an eye-opening experience. It showed me just how far radar detector technology has come since I last used one."
"The Max 4, even right out of the box, is quiet. To get a false alert during testing, I had to roll right up to the front of shopping centers to get a reaction for an automatic door."
"The Max 4 gives me a good half-mile of warning from their locations. Some of them are in areas where the roads are lined with trees and/or are around corners. The Max 4 will still give me plenty of warning, even without a direct line of sight to the emitter."
