    Every Rig on the highway has one. Truck drivers are good for information.

    Also, there are a few 4 wheel CB operators from time to time.

    Where have you been :?: :!: It's nothing to laugh about for running a CB radio in your vehicle, been doing this for 26 months now and ain't no 18-wheeler... personally I don't freaking care what others think about my car running a Wilson 5000 (with a short load, so shorter than the original whip but the performance is exactly the same), in fact I bet 95% of them have no idea what a hell is that metal whip on top of my car not to speak what it's doing for me on the open road when I am able to hear all the road conditions, road closures, crashes, obviously smokey bears, etc. and they are not...

    RD + CB Radio = no more traffic tickets since spring of '05 :wink:

    CB is one of the best defenses against laser, vascar, or any radar band on the higway...people tell you miles and miles in advance of any detector..
