Yeah buddy! Not that we are big time CB geeks, but proper communication among professional truck drivers can be helpful on the road & off. Buying a CB - citizens band radio for your vehicle can not only be a convenience of pre-traffic-jam news source, but also be a life saving tool in an emergency backcountry situation. Dirt back roads often do not have good (if any cell phone service).
