    Where does everybody have their cb antennas mounted? I saw vinces rear tail light mount. Wasn't a huge fan of how much movement there was. I want to add ditch lights some day so hood mount isn't preferable. Ideas?

    Do you get any movement on or off road? Where do you run the wire? Through the hatch?

    Thanks man! I have to figure out a way to run a cable so that I can take it on and off. I have about 8 inches between the roof of my garage and the roof of the 4runner. Cant have a 36" antenna up there all the time!

    What does your book have for the Bonanza area? Near Saguache

    You are fine. Other than the fact you have never heard of leg day...

    That area is pretty close to my house. Never checked it out.
