How hard is it to install a CB radio in a 2018 fleetwood bounder?

I mounted one on the side above the drivers window, sold it with the MH. There are groundless antennas that use the coax for the ground, limites the range more than the already limited range.
Not much chatter on CB these days, replaced by cells and ham radio. Questionable value these days IMHO.
To talk with truckers to get info on accidents/road conditions/ detours use channel 17 on the west coast or 19 in other states. You will get info on conditions approx. 1 mile ahead and behind your location.
Cell with mapping app does that even better. On freeways, 1 mile is often too late to do anything. A mapping app will typically look at your entire route every minute or so and update as needed.
