All kidding aside, most 18-wheelers still use CBs. If you spend a lot of time on the Interstate system, a CB is still the best way to keep track of Smokies. The trucks keep a very close eye on where The Man is.

Much better range than a radar detector. You'll know where they are hiding 10 miles or more from your location. Which way they are going if rolling. Even what type (Sheriff, Trooper, local cop, etc.) and what color and type of vehicle they're driving.

And a cell phone is basically useless for this purpose. Who ya gonna call? Not to mention areas where you get no reception. No monthly bill, either.

This might just be the ultimate period accessory for a blue with white stripes 427...
