I have one in my truck for two reasons.

1. They are easier to use than a cellphone sometimes

2. You can screw around and say stupid shit on random channels for fun

i have one in my truck, and in the town i live in, EVERYONE has one, seriously, there is a CB antenna on every car/truck in every parking lot, its fucking great. (ask O.D.S.T. for confirmation on this, we live in a redneck fucking paradise)

its sssooo much fun on roadtrips, when your on the highway with big trucks. my friends fight hard over who gets to ride shotty whenever we go anywhere because they love to play with the CB, i love having really crazy conversations with truckers, and asking what they are hauling and shit.

i make up a new callsign like every other day, but i usually say im "pbr streetgang" or "haywagon" or "muddog" smokeymcpott and potmcsmoker are favorites too.

its also mad cool cause if you see a truck coming the other way on a road, you can ask them about cops/construction/traffic on your side of the road up ahead.

haha, i am way to fucking into that thing

p.s. its also good because i was too lazy to get my truck inspected for like... six months, so i put the antenna mount in front of the registration sticker to cover it up.

mines coming in the mail for my jeep. im excited to get it installed and tuned esp since i have a 15hr drive coming up. but im mainly gonna use it for off road trail rides with groups.

how do you distinguish whos who? and whats some good lingo to know?

also did you guys get a PA system with it? i bought a seperate speaker so i can yell at ppl in parking lots and while driving down the street.

I use Raptor.  I have never seen Top Gun so I have no idea if that is in that movie or not.
