We found out really quickly with the Outlaw Raptor Runs that the CB radios are so limited in distance that it did not work. That is what we tried to use on the 1st Run.

VHF is the only way to go. But once again, not required. Handy but not required.

well that kinda sucks cause i got a pretty nice cobra CB from my dad as well his was a cobra 29 LTS ST which is a really nice radio. hopefully it will work pretty well with the bed mounted antenna... it should have at least a 5 mile range with the antenna i wanna get hopefully it'll work just fine haha

Now that I have some new MAY POPS on my Raptor, is there gonna be any kind of support on site for tire repair or is there a near by shop for these services? I know some of us will bust a tire or two. I know we all have the spare but if two tires are popped whats our options. Borrow and steal and return to owner down the road? HAHaa. Just a thought. I have no issue loaning out my spare to get someone home if they are not 1500 miles away. I know there are major brand dealers in San Angelo or Abiline so its not like we can't limp into one. Just would be nice if there are a few jacks and such around.

Tire plug kit. There should be a llanterra somewhere nearby. I have 2 spares as well. I'd be willing to loan it out as long as it makes it home.
