What do you guys think about CB Radios? My friends and I went to the local flea market and we found a bunch of them so we bought them. Atleast it'll keep the cell bill down...

Just don't use channel 9 and don't hold the transmitter on for more than a few minutes at a time (you could burn it up).
Nothing wrong with them. You won't have that great of range, but you could always get GMRS radios or better later on if the CB isn't strong enough.

i love cb's they are great for trips or just your daily commute......i used to run a superstar......had connex board, modulation kit, talkback, noise cancellin mic, and a 250 watt linear
what you got i might be interested in one, also dont assume because they ligt up that they work....you could have a final burnt out
