I thought about writing something witty and awe inspiring to go along with the title. Nope, just going to call it as it is. Purchased this very stylish antenna, went on exactly as indicated, looked the bomb. Took it for a drive around the block and through a car wash, so far so good.
THEN hit the highway on my way back and I was " B" slapped by the amount of noise this generates. I mean to the point where conversations were not pleasant as it was just piercing noise coming from it. Thought ok maybe it's just my truck, so I put it on another Ram. This one all stock minus an air freshener, same thing. Now if you do not mind whistling noise while traveling at highway speed, then again this is a beaut. For the price point I'm really impressed with the build quality.
For my needs, it just did not meet them and I've now gone back to that oem one. Again if you do not mind noise, then I encourage you to grab one of these. Just remember if it doesn't suit you, you can always go back.
F.O.F
