Good Night Mr. Valentine RIP

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."

Had a few passports back in my youth when all I did was use the street as a race track. Majority of the time it saved my butt.

I have owned many radar detectors from Cincinnati Microwave and Valentine One.
As previously mentioned, the V1G2 and Waze is the best combination out there. RIP Mr. Valentine

Sad news indeed. Have been a V1 user pushing 30 years. Mike Valentine really did innovate in an industry that was very gray market in it's infancy. His contributions in Cincinnati microwave transformed the detector market.
I remember upgrading from my Fuzzbuster 2000 to the Passport RD was like moving from a Blackberry to an iPhone. Then when I moved to the Valentine One I never went back. RIP Mike
