I’ve come to the conclusion that at our age, we need to stop lone wolfing our off-road adventures. We have joined the Az. Bronco club. So I’m looking for recommendations for brands and model #’s of two way radios. I’ve have not kept up with what is available today, or with the new technologies that are out there now.
I would love to hear about your experiences as well with different radios good and bad. Thanks.

It's all good, @Sam I Am 1966. Everything comes easy with enough practice. Trial and error taught me how to post links with simple descriptors. The link feature shown below (circled in red) lets you paste a URL link in one window and then you can add a "plain English" description of what the link is in another window.

I think you're wise to purchase what's right for your expected usage. I opted to get both, the Midland GMRS base station for my Bronco as well as the Midland GMRS handheld radios so I could share them with others as needed while on trails. And as described earlier, the GMRS license is cheap. It only costs $35 and is good for ten years. Both of the manufacturers you listed offer quality merchandise. They are major players in the market.

Thanks @BuckYeah ! Appreciate the feedback. After reading this entire thread I assumed between the two radios I’m deciding between it comes down to personal preference and need; performance would be very similar. Both brands are mentioned often. I may install a base unit in the bronco at some point, post retirement, when I hope to be out on the trials and beaches more often.

Oh, and thank you again for the friendly helpful tips on posting!! Cheers 🍻
