I also monitor 146.52. I don't have a sign on my back window, but I'm planning on doing it, both on my RV and my pickup. One thing I do when traveling is to transmit my call sign and "listening" every few miles and around towns of any size. I do get a response occasionally which is nice.

My radio is an ICOM ID51A+ so I don't have a lot of FM range. An external antenna on my truck is in the planning stages.

My HT is a DStar model and I have a portable DStar hotspot that I travel with also using my smartphone and Verizon as an internet connection. I always monitor Ref030C when traveling and also when at a camp site. Lots of activity on DStar so there is always someone to talk to or listen to and from most anywhere in the world too.
