I strongly disagree. In the 20+ years I've used one version of Passport after another I can't tell you how many times they've saved my butt. And the 8500 is virtually false alarm free and can be programmed to eliminate X band for example to remove false alarms from radar-like (primarily motion detector) sources.
Granted, they are basically useless against LASER, but for radar a good detector does the job. Wouldn't be happy driving without my Passport 8500.
As for making your car "stealth" - I'm with mooretorque. What I've seen says the claims haven't been met. The tests indicate they don't work. If someone has some concrete data to the contrary I'd be very interested. If they really have one that works I'd go for it. So far I haven't felt the need to spend my money on one.
