You give up a lot of flexibility, but it sounds like you don't care.
I have similar Kenwood gmrs only handhelds (tk3101) that are almost 25 years old and still trucking. Very rugged and simple.
I don't see a current Kenwood equivalent, so if outlander says these baofeng gmrs pros are good to go, that's an easy answer.
Outlander, it looks like these can transmit only on gmrs, but can receive all UHF and VHF. Can that be overridden to allow VHF transmit or ham UHF? I like that you can set up repeater channels as well from the front panel though.
Also, I'm thinking you had one of the Chinese 148s? Did you ever look into the newer 152's?
