    Hell yeah! :D



    I'm in the Northwest now, so I might as well roll with the rest of us Northwest guys heading out there. :D


    This is in April right? I'll have to start saving. I'll definitely have to get sliders before then as well.

    Cheap for me though is like $10. I'm on a tight budget at the moment. :(



    I've got enough time though, I'll figure it out. :D

    I dont have one yet either. I was looking at the Midland ones. Any thoughts on midland? Im thinking either the portable one for $70 or the built in one for $30

    Id look into Wilson superflex antenna tho instead of firesticks. Less likely to break.

    Shit adam..better get one man!

    I've got a Firestick in my parent's garage down in San Diego, but it would probably be better to just get a new one. I'll have to go check out the CBs soon. :cool:

    I have that one! I like it a lot actually. Im going to hard wire in the truck mount tho and get an external antenna as its suppose to improve your range a lot.

    Great radio tho. Tony also just got the cobra portable one.

    Midland or Cobra?

    Cobra seems to be the cheaper option. Im thinking Midland, cause it seems to be well reviewed.

    Kinda what i figured, but think of our group now..10 trucks about..gonna be a long line.

    But i still got one, with an external antenna it boosts the range up to 2-4 miles i think. So thats what im gonna do. I like it.
