Default Mounting cb antennas

Can I mount some cb antennas just using the stud mounts. I would drill into the bed rails and bolt it from the bottom.

yeah if anybody saw the whip on your truck and asked to see the radio, you would look like a silly girl.

Just go out and buy a 40 doller cb at malmart and install it. Even at a yard sale or something. You will get your money back in return when a truck driver comes on the air warning about a hidden radar setup around the bend. Saving you a 40 doller ticket. Some even come with a built in PA system, so you dont have to look stupid screaming at the jerk who cut you off and not be heard, you can microphone it so everyone knows how pissed you are.
