Any recommendations?

Is this a joke?

Not a joke. I have almost zero knowledge when it comes to CB radios.

With the technology we have today, I'd look at getting a good handheld and just wire in a charging station. Then you won't need to worry about the antenna and wires and such. Now if I remember correctly...forgive me it's been a while...but I do believe Cobra CB radios were some of the best around.

Do you mean a VHF radio? Like ones used for forestry projects and such? We actually use them quite a bit as many of the areas we access are active haul roads.

CBs are used (in the US at least) primarily by truckers and groups like off-road clubs. It's in the 27 MHz range. Not sure if that's VHF.

I run a galaxy vhp98 its a sid and radio. And has a few more watts then the standard cbs

I have one that I use for road trips and went with a portable Midland that doubles as a handheld. That way I can use it in multiple vehicles. Range is much better with the mag-mount antenna than the hand held.
