I think mirror mounts look pretty good.

You can get a magnetic mount cb antenna and stick it on your roof. That's what my brother always does and they seem to work pretty good.

I was just outside and put a 6' Whip on a magnet mount for a temp setup.

Yah if you have the tool box in the bed behind the cab you can bolt a mirror mount bracket right to the box and 2' whips just clear the top of the cab and look good IMO.

Here is a pic of my old GMT400 with the 2' whip on the bed box behind the cab. Telephone pole kind of screws it up but it gives you an idea.

That is a bracket my old man mounted there to stick a magnet mount CB antenna, like a foot or so high in length. It kept falling off so he Zip tied it and electrical taped it to hold it there. :rolleyes:

At least I learned and moved on to build upon his foundation with self tapping screws and silicone... :D
