    Dunno, I would run my own wiring with any radio more powerful than a lightly tuned cobra (25w?). Stock cb wattage is only 4 afterall. For a temporary fix, I might use the factory wiring for now but set my gain for transmit/receive all the way down.

    Yes it is. Be careful using the GPS though -- make sure you go to the Venture that crosses Joe Rodriguez

    From the east: i10 to tx-375 south (this interchange is under construction so pay attention to signage). Then continue south/west to exit 48 Zaragoza. Stay all the way left & take uturn under the bridge, then t/r on joe Rodriguez, then left on venture.

    The navigo will try to take you off exit 47 Alameda and put you in a tiny neighborhood street, also called venture...

    They usually get you a load out of there? Or will I need a MT? This only drop yard I've never been to. Before they had me relay at the freight yard.
