    Hi all. Unfortunately I do not think I can get Wednesday or Thursday off work. Anyone planning on heading up Thursday evening? Also I am trying to figure out the best CB setup prior to leaving. There seems to be a wealth of information out there, but I want to make sure I install the CB properly and fairly permanently (it is a 2012 Tacoma, no reason to put some cheap radio in it). Any suggestions on how I go about the install and which CB/antenna to purchase?

    My camping gear is all on the shelves on my back porch, all together. You're welcome to whatever you need. I have a couple 5-gallon plastic gas cans, too, if you need.
