No question for me: Baofeng UV5-R

(Others very much disagree as it's "older tech" but it's a radio, and they're very cheap - typically two for $25 or so on sale). Easily programmed with CHIRP software...

Midland makes some good handhelds that come in a set for a decent price. Baofeng makes a uv-5r variant specifically for GMRS.

This video has some to consider too.

Your lightening wallet not setup?

I will turn it on at some point.
