GMRS? If you could only have one…

If you could only have one pair of portable (walkie talkie) radios, would it be GMRS? MURS? I am in southern United States…also considering CB, have it mounted on vehicles before, but looking for options that don’t require external mounts. Anyhow, options, opinions, pros and cons welcome. (For what it is worth, I have experience and licenses…just dealing with a new vehicle - small SUV, great gas mileage, daily driver, looking at different options than before.)

Another option is getting an inexpensive Baofeng ham radio and program all the GMRS channels/freqs. You’ll have options on using any frequencies (Ham, MURs, FRS, etc.)

Honestly, this is exactly what I do right now. I have a couple of Baofeng’s and tidradios…actually works well lol.

GMRS.

This is pretty much what I am leaning towards.
