2M/70CM still pretty active here in New Mexico. We have a lot of repeaters including the Mega-Link System (NM5ML) which lets you talk state wide with low power. Most repeaters are up 10,000 ft so line of sight is pretty easy. I usually get on the county club repeater for the Wednesday night net once a week, and there's also a 2M/USB weak signal net, but I need to half-@ss a yagi together before I try that one again.
As for a mobile rig, maybe I'll just put one in the '59 Ford, points ignition and a carb lol
