Can someone dumb these radios down for me? Why do you need radios like these on runs? Do walkie talkies not work? Cell phones? Also I have a lot walkie talkies at work. Could I use a radio hard wired in my truck to talk to my people on a big construction site? Whats my best option?

And why the licensing? is it the same radios that emergency responders communicate on?
I can think of many times I either showed up late or had to run way out back to the main hwy to pick someone up, and that radio allowed me to keep in contact the whole way without interruptions. The range is much better than regular handhelds. On the other hand, you can get a handheld and keep in contact with those who have the VHF's. Only they can reach you, but you may not reach out to them at times.
