New at CB after many years

After being away from CBs for many years (20 years with a Browning unit) I want to take the plunge again and get a unit for my Jeep. I spend a lot of time on the highway and besides looking for cops and getting traffic updates, I want to have some emergency communications.



Things have changed in the years that I've been away, I see references to SSB, and export 10 meter systems. The questions that I have are do I need these in New England and how many other people here use them.

Right now, I would like to keep the unit portable by using a magnetic antenna and a cigarette lighter plug. Will this type of setup work well?. Someone recommended a Uniden PC 78 and a Wilson 1000 antenna. Any other recommendations?



Sorry to be long winded. Thanks for the help.
