There is /r/cbradio, but I pretty much just googled everything. I bought these items and I'm pretty happy with them:
Uniden 520XL - Nice, small, cheap radio
Cigarette Lighter Power Adapter
K40 Magnet Mount Antennae with wiring - it is 15 feet of wire so that should be enough to go from the trunk lid to your dash.
SWR tester - this is to test your SWR and make sure the antennae is tuned properly, it also comes with a jumper wire to connect to your radio
If you need help with anything let me know. The CB has been very helpful on I-75, but on Daniels in Fort Myers and Golden Gate Parkway in Naples I have not had any success getting traffic updates etc. which I expected, but it's definitely super helpful on the interstate.
