Default New CB radio and offroading

I just installed a Cobra 19 DX IV CB radio and a Firestik FS II antenna. I also got a PA speaker which is EXTREMELY fun to play with. Im extremely happy with the whole setup and it was a lot of fun to install. im so happy to finally have a truck I can do stuff to.

I also went on a little mud hunt (first time i've ever done that) earlier today and found a dirt road but it wasn't the greatest offroading. There were a few patches of mud and good spots but nothing amazing. It got my truck a little dirty though which is always nice

Very nice, I like it a lot. I haven't gotten an exact range yet but it seems to be pretty good. Enough to make me happy anyway

Lived in Everett from 2000-2003 and Mount Vernon from 2005-2007. Also have family that lives in Napavine and friends in Mount Vernon, Tenino and Tumwater.

There's also power line trail out by Gold Bar and an OHV park on SR9 in Big Rock (Mt Vernon).
