GPS / CB Choices
I need a GPS and a decent CB radio... So I need advice. This past week I drove from CA to AR and back in 5 days. CA to AR was done in a rental car and AR to CA was done in a small Class C motorhome...

My Samsung S8 makes a great GPS; I use Google Maps exclusively.
A CB might be a good idea but I wonder if truckers still use it. I just bought a GMRS (Baofeng brand) handheld radio for talking to other off-roaders. CB is only allowed 4 watts to transmit while GMRS is allowed up to 50 watts. BTW my new GMRS is 5 watts, already has the CB beat in power. Get a handheld and nothing needs to be installed. I understand truckers use channel 7 GMRS.
