Stubby looks cool. Thanks.

So not a light bar on the plate but led lights to illuminate the plate?

Screen protector check.

Avalanche screw ordered last week. Putting my list together.

Default Short Antenna

In our 18 years of working with antennas we have built up a lot of feedback. Our F150 customers have really liked our short 6 3/4" antenna and its reception performance. It's performance is close to our 21" antenna that is styled after the factory rod antenna, just rubber and shorter.

The best reception antenna is the factory length antenna. The second you shorten the antenna there is a performance drop to some extent. This performance drop is noticeable in rural areas the most. So if you're inner city, it doesn't really matter much which antenna you choose. With that being said, when we have one who would like to shorten their antenna length, yet maintenance as much reception as possible its ranked as follows.

1) 21" spring steel antenna

2) 6 3/4" rubber antenna (Performance close to the 21")

3) 15" spring steel antenna

Hope this helps.
