When I got the ham radio, my hope was that I’d just skip the whole CB thing. I mean, when you’ve got the real thing… 🙂

But, as it turns out (and let’s be honest, I knew this when I installed the ham radio), a lot of folks don’t have a HAM license, so CB’s are the common denominator on trips. About to set-off on a 14 day Tour of Montana and Wyoming, it was time to get the CB installed.

For First Gen Tacoma’s, there’s really only one option for a CB radio IMO — the Uniden PRO520XL 40-Channel CB Radio. It fits perfectly in the ashtray location, and gets really high marks for usability and clarity — so of course, that’s the way I decided to go.

…of course, nothing’s ever easy, as I’d soon find out
