Some interesting quotes from this article:

Quote
Enthusiasts predict that CBs will some day be required equipment on all cars

With a "good buddy" system of 100 million or more Americans speaking compulsively in inelegant private tongues, what will happen to the language of Jefferson and Henry James? Will future presidential candidates have to campaign by mike from the expressways—and learn to call them "double slabs"? Or will the whole CB cult simply go the way of goldfish swallowing and Hula-Hoops?

Talk Shows. That fate seems unlikely. CB provides too many valuable uses and affordable comforts to fade out.

I'm thinking that the "PP" you reference is similar to a "lot lizard" (although possibly higher on the scale).
