Pros:
Small, convienient controls
Cons:
Easy to accidentally press buttons
The Good
This is a great CB for a Jeep. The big difference that separates this CB from the rest is that almost everything is integrated into the handset, channel controls, volume, squelch, and other goodies. There is a small part that mounts in an inconspicuous location that the handset, antenna, and power supply attach to. There is provision to attach an external speaker to help increase the sound clarity in a noisy Jeep.
The Bad
With everything integrated into the handset it's easy to accidentally change channels, change volume, or bump other controls. The little speaker in the handset is sometimes hard to hear from in a noisy Jeep roaring down the road, this is easily remedied with an external speaker. One more thing, the handset can get pretty beat from being dropped and bouncing around the Jeep's floor on the trail. A broken handset with this CB means a new CB is needed.
Performance
It is convenient having the controls in the palm of your hand. It saves from reaching for the volume or squelch. The CB's Soundtracker feature is nice, it picks up and enhances transmissions and reduces background noise. The CB's reception and transmission quality is excellent. A usual overlooked element in CB performance is a quality antenna. Using a quality antenna tuned appropriately will enable a CB to function to it's best.
