Yall need to get off the silly CB and move onto a real radio. I love my 2m rig. The quality is SO much clearer. However I do have that skinny uniden that everyone seems to run. However I accidently left the bracket in the truck. So now I need a bracket for it.

Hmmm - I don't think you're finished yet Jeff. See ---> Firestik's Setting SWR help page. I'll bring over one of my new Easytune 3' Firestik II antennas Sunday if you're still getting high readings, and we can try tweaking it.
But since my 4' antenna read the same and it worked the last trail ride, I may leave it alone for now....
But you are more than welcome to look at it on SUnday.
BTW: I have a brake bleeder kit, no need to bring one.

I'm thinking about it. I like the crushers, but they have an "E" load rating. I'm afraid that would make my daily ride really rough.
The MTR-Kevlars should be good, but they look really weird with the innovative tread design. They have a "D" load rating and got some good reviews out in Moab. But then a lot of tires will do good when the main surface is hot dry rock.
So it looks like I'll still be keeping the Destination MT and MTZ's on my short list.

Dennis I'm also strongly considering the Destinations. Almost all reviews are positive, not to mention they have 2/32 deeper tread than most other M/T. I priced about 8 different tires at Top Line this morning and I could save about $70 per tire over the KM2. I need to make this decision today, so I can have my new shoes put on tomorrow.
