Depending on the range you will actually need/use, I would think that the FRS is probably sufficient. Among the FRS type radios, I have found the Kenwood to provide the best combination of features and price. While it has slightly less power than other brands, I have found the distance and reception to be "the best".
One nice feature is the built in scrambling. Two Kenwoods set to the same channel will scramble the signal so that anyone else on the same channel/subchannel, will not receive the transmission(unless they also have a Kenwood).
