Since they've done away with the Morse Code requirement for the Technician's Ham license, I'd probably go THAT way, if I'm starting from scratch. Some cheap portable radios for short range (an HONEST couple of miles!), and a big honkin' Connex for your vehicles. Get's 10 meter (CB) and 11 meter (Ham) in ONE convenient unit!
