doubleadesign, I waited till the last minute to get my CB as well. I couldn't find the cobra remote power one that everyone recommended here, was gonna install it tonight myself. I had to have gone to like 8 stores, so finally I went back to radio shack, my first stop, and got their cb walkie-talkie. No hookup required, its like $99 and includes everything you need (ie: batter, AA battery casing, DC adapter for recharging etc.) The only thing you might consider buying along with it is a dc car adapater incase your battery runs out. Other then that, the only difference between the walkie and the unit you would actually install is the walkie gets about 3 miles and the installed unit gets about 5 miles. I figured I wouldn't need more then a few miles cause if I'm that far from everyone else then I'm screwed anyway. I also liked the fact that I wasn't tied to my truck and could use it anywhere.
John, lol, I LOVE YOU MAN
Ok, is it Kasha or Kasia?? Have I been butchering your name this whole time?? Anyway, was there any doubt I'd help a brother out??
Anyone know of any actual store that carries tow shackles?? I got my tow strap, but can't find any place that carrys shackles.
