The stinger is quite long I have a removable clamp for the whip and have to remove it to get into the garage I said bumper on my last post it's not on the bumper it's mounted inside of the truck bed on a standard ball mount then supported a bit higher up on the mast with a homemade lexan insulator. The ideal is to clear the roof line with the coil I have seen a few MH installs with the antenna mounted on the ladder with only the whip above the roof I don't believe that to be very efficient. All of my high freq antennas are mounted edge of the bed of the truck yeah I'm hard to miss looks like a porcupine. I have several photos that I can share.
