I would not mount a screw driver antenna close to the cab unless you can get the coil above the roof. I have seen some mounted on a tool box in the bed they to me are still a bit too close to the cab. Here is a HS antenna I bought at a ham fest for $50 and rebuilt on the back of my camper with my home made mount it folds down and every thing gets assembled on the ground then I raze the mount up and it gets pinned. I also have 24' of fiberglass poles for the 10,12,15, and 17 meter rotatable dipole.
