    All the good trails are 4 to 6 hours away (at a minimum) We routinely "road march" 'em to/from home. I wanted a decent radio with some range for roadin' it. One buddy drives me out of my ever lovin' mind with the cell phone.....In a recent 3 hour road trip, he called me 17 times on the way up to Badlands. He's into CB's in a big way. I have a feeling I'll be turning mine off while we're on the highway. I just don't like "noise" while I'm driving.

    yeah turn it off and he'll be calling you on the phone again. if he's so big into cb's you should have conned him into installing yours claiming you just weren't sure you'd get it rt

    Calling this guy a half ass would be giving him about 50% too much credit. No way he turns a wrench on my truck!

    Phones have an off switch. So do radio's.

    I'm VERY particular about how things are done on my rides.

    aha that explains it then. how was your first day back at work. i got to start by lifting and installing dumptruck wheels on one side of the truck by myself so i dropped the wheel dolly on the other side of the truck and let the other dude do the rest by himself. then when he acted like it was killing him to torque the nuts to 500 ft lbs i offered to help so he walked away after doing 1 1/2 wheels and left me to finnish them. all this after realizing for some reason they didn't pay me

    It worked well in the tundra. All my backwoods traveling friends have CBs so it only makes sense to have that over the ham for now. Plus you can talk to truckers on the freeway....
