CB Antennas

I want to get some cb antennas for my truck. I want some flex in them, so which is better, firestik, or wilson super flex. And I want the mount that goes in the bed rail hole, so would the wilson super flex work for the firestik mount.

Not an answer to your question but if you want to extend your CB range without adding an amplifer to boost the signal I will say get a very long antenna cable and add it in and coil the cable up under your carpet. I did that to a old truck of mine and actually improved the range by 3 or so miles (way I figure it works is that the extra wire basically turned the whole truck into an antenna). But I had two huge fiberglass whips attached to the trucker style mirrors on the truck.
