We here at 10 Gallon Hat would like to make a recommendation. If you are going to be taking a road trip with multiple people in multiple vehicles, we suggest you use these Motorola Walkie-Talkies. They work wonderfully while on the road.

Before we were on the road I mentioned to Teresa that I wanted to get us some walkie-talkies just for communicating back and forth. She didn’t understand why since we both have cell phones and could just talk back and forth that way. I insisted that we were on a road trip, and in a kind of caravan. Walkie-talkies were a must. We found these for the right price and purchased them.

Once on the road they were great. They worked at far distances, and were much easier than using cell phones. Who wants to pick up the phone and male a call just to say “I need to take this exit so I can pee”? Nobody, thats who! With just the push of a button you could send a quick message. It was a lot like IM’ing, but over the airwaves.

Next time you travel, pick some of these up. At under $10 each, how can you go wrong?
