I have always loved the Firestix 2's, tune em up with an SWR meter in an open field, and you will get out well with them.

Re: Anyone running CB's in their truck these days?

Noah, I used a pair of twin "Hustlers" when I was doing the CB bit. Got out well with them. Not sure if still have them in the garage or not. Could look and see if still have them. Think they were 40'' long if I remember. Ran them with a splitter for the two antennas.
