After all we put ya through I will give ya a couple free shots... I did give ya hell, but just admit, to put this to rest, you had it coming. Talking **** about CB's on a FORD TRUCK FORUM. Might as well visit the Bush household for thanksgiving and discuss your hatred of oil

 

It is in post #87 but here it is again..

Internet toughguy video

 

after all this talk about CB's I have gotten curious. Dont be surprised if I get a CB radio and put it in my truck for ****s and giggles. I dont want a huge antenna though. I am not kidding either. I may give it a try.

 

haha i would agree

 

I agree I shouldnt have posted that on this forum but oh well. It made an interesting **** talking thread. I couldnt wait to get back on here to see what was said when I got back to Dallas. I have pretty tough skin and can handle some bashing.

about myspace....I thought it was gay until about a couple years ago when I got convinced to start a page by my ex girl friend. Now I like it. I store pictures on there and also communicate with some friends back in Florida. Its just another form of communication to me. Kind of like a CB!

 

Cobra makes one that is pretty much handheld. You still need a external antenna, but you can use a cheap magnet mount(from Walmart) and stick it to the bed putting the top of the antenna about as tall as your cab. Run the wire through a back door and no drilling or permanent instillation would be required. That way if you dont like it no harm was done

 

Honestly I have never used a CB before and I am completely clueless about how to work them. I think I may give it a shot. But I think it would only be fun if you know other people that have them. By the way whats the range on a Cb radio?

 

Alot of variables limit range. Even with a basic CB and antenna set-up, like the one KI mentioned above, should get you atleast a good couple miles. CB's benefit from a nice whip antenna, or dual whip, and open flat area. They can also be tuned with an electronic tool for more range.

 

Based on my experience...4-8 miles...It really depends on what you buy. Some have more boosts than others.

 

actually i am getting one put on, i live in dallas and i am going to a place called bonnie and clyde's or something like that and i am getting it for like $100 installed with a PA system, my friend got one put on with a PA system and it is pretty tight.

 

where do you guys put the CB radios? Glove Box? MIddle sunglass storage on the roof? I guess maybe even in the huge storage area in the center console. Lets see some pics.....

 

my friend has a titan and he has his down and to the left of the steering wheel with the outer PA speaker behind his grill it looks like a good place for it

 

ive gotten 17 miles with that little $30 radio from walmart and a nice antenna, when i turn my amp on i can come through peoples radios, tvs and etc and ummm alot of people get pissed

 

Aight, I do have to say this.... I had an extremely crappy day/night, I logged on to read the latest, and you calling me an old man made me laugh out loud for real.
I don't know why, it just caught me in a peculiar kinda way, and I'm still laughing.
Btw, I'm 41 and I just realized now that old age snuck up on me when I wasn't looking.
No I'm not a intertnet tough guy, I'm exactly the same on here as in real life.
You said some stupid things which offended some people and you got a reaction.
I get the feeling you're sharp enough to know it was coming.

Perhaps fkhead was a bit severe, I think dumbass would been more in order.
The 911 thing set me off, I'm sure you can understand.

Peace

 

Yes dumbass would have been better! Its cool though. No hard feelings. I am only 10 years behind you anyway. I dont remember where my late 20's went.
