From the manufacturer
The BearTracker 885 does what no other CB Radio can do: It can keep you up-to-date with current public safety activity anywhere in the US and Canada* by scanning for police, fire, ambulance, and/or DOT radio traffic. No need to worry about changing scanner programming as you drive. The included GPS allows the BearTracker 885 to automatically select nearby channels from its nationwide database without you having to lift a finger. We update that database every week, so if something changes where you are (or where you are going to be), simply load the latest using the included BearTracker Update Manager. The database includes all known* analog and digital channels, so all you have to do is drive and listen.

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2018
This device is the perfect answer to my problem: How to nicely mount and use a scanner, a CB, and a 2m/70cm radio in my Ram 2500. I could get any two mounted, but not three without opening up the dash and mounting equipment on top under the front window. I did not want to do that!
In use, the scanner actually quite nice for use while driving; you don't really have time or need to know the precise agency and type of channel. It just works, and just work well. The CB is a full featured CB, lacking only a CB channel scan function to be just about perfect (oh, wait, I wish it had SSB too!)
So: If you want the perfect scanner, buy a Uniden BCD536HP (that's the scanner I replaced in my truck) - full featured, full details about what you are listening to, and other features to discover and monitor new channels. If you want a perfect CB, buy a Uniden Bearcat 980 SSB CB (the CB I replaced), with weather, scan, and SSB for a little more range.
But - if you want one darn box to mount and both a scanner and a CB in your vehicle, and you are willing to trade some scanner complexity/functionality and some CB functionality for a relatively bulletproof, easy to use bit of kit... get this!
I think it's pricey, but also think it's a good value. You can't get one anywhere else yet, so this is the opportunity cost in buying the initially released units... I'm very happy to support the product.
As for the cb side, I have not made contact with any locals for radio check yet. However, it does put out a legal and respectable 3.5-3.7 watts on transmit. Some radios only put out 2 watts..... Not this one. Works for me.
No SSB. No CB channel scan. No radio check options in menu like the 880 and 980SSB. Included wire scanner antenna works well, but many do go for external magnet mount mobile, discone base, or nmo mount mobile antennas.
Top reviews from other countries
You can’t hear certain radio as they’re encrypted and can’t access it by law (Canada anyways) other then that it’s a great cb, compared to my old one everything has increased drastically, which I love.
But as said earlier the CB is not the greatest and the scanner configurability I found not to be very good either ....
