cb radio question??

Ok so here's whats up I just bought a new Cobra cb radio. Model: 29 NW Classic CB Radio.
I am going to go ahead and install it myself, because it's two simple wires a positive and a negative. But anyways it tells me how to hook it up to a negative gound system. How can I tell if it's a negative ground system so I hook it up properly? My truck is a 1990 Ford Bronco XLT.
I just need help with how to tell what type of ground system you have, but also if you have any tips on installing a cb radio too that'd be great.
Thanks,

Sean

The last time I saw a positive ground system was on a 1963 Jaguar. All modern cars are negitive ground.

Yeah I got everything hooked up fine. Thanks. I'm a new driver 15. Just wanted a cb for off roading purposes and to use to keep me from getting bored on long drives. It's pretty funny some of the things people talk about out their.

But anyways thanks for the help.
