HAOLE Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Besides trbovw and I, most of you were not born when ithe CB craze was going strong. In the 70's you could order your car with a factory CB. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trbovw Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Thats the truth. I just got finished in early 2000 but have been thinking about it again. My last radio was a peaked and tuned General Lee radio with an 8 pill 1200 kw kicker and a wilson 5000. Had to run 2 deep cycle batteries and a big alternator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gergwheel1647545492 Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 We got us a convoy! When i wrecked on 71 i had a CB in my car and as i was sliding on the ice i heard the truckers right behid me say "Whoa that little red car just lost it", "watch out buddy he's coming back at ya". i went into the median and tried to pull out of it and I ended up doing a 180* right in front of 2 truckers, then came to rest on a gaurd rail. thinking back now that is funny as hell, but it was scary as shit at the time!
