    Hey everyone!

    Brand new to the Tacoma scene and loving it thus far! I will be attending my first off-roading meet up group in two weeks and would love some input on what type of air compressor and CB radio I should get. Any suggestions? I am running a 2017 4x4 Off-Road. No mods yet, all stock.

    Thanks so much!

    Welcome!

    As for CB’s, the antenna matters a lot more than the radio. All radios transmit at 4 watts, so find one that fits where you want it or has the features you want. Having a properly tuned antenna is what will get you the best signal.

    Sure thing! If you decide to grab it don't buy the 24v one by mistake. ;)
