Mostly due to the additional features, I'd go with the Escort.
If you travel the same road, over time you should learn most of the spots with speed traps. Time of day and traffic also plays an important role -- I have no problem speeding (actually, going with the flow) in the Seattle are roads, but doing that on lightly traveled roads can be more risky -- even though the likelyhood of police on the lookout for speeders is much lower, when you're the only one on the road for miles (like on SR26 after midnight
) your chances of evading the speed trap, should you run into one, is much lower, too.
