We bought a Midland package with a real small unit in the center console box ...all controls on the Microphone for the truck cab and 2 hand help units (also with weather bands) ..great coverage radius ..a couple miles if flat, and in woods about 1/2 mile. When we were in Baja for a couple months it was great as one of us takes the dog for a walk and can be in contact while away from camper if there was any unpleasant incidents (none). Just made us feel safer.
