I whent through the car wash and it bent my antenna, where can I get one of those short 15 in black rubber antennas? I hate these 31" wire whips.

Same thing happenedto me. Check with a local auto parts store like AutoZone or check eBay. I got a 15" billet antenna from a local store for about $20 or less..

You went through the car wash without removing your antenna?

you went through a car wash period. Wash your own truck...less scratches, more pleasure in the long run, and it looks better!

Sometimes....in the winter....and especially in the snow/salt belt ...it's better (IMHO) to go through a car wash to have the salt removed....particularly those car washes that do an under-carriage wash....than to wait for a day where it's warm enough to be able to wash your own.
