I can see why it makes noise it's so thick, I think the oem one has that what looks like a wire wrapped around it has something to do with how it cuts the wind? maybe? I get no noise this this is quieter that some luxury cars I have been in.

This one is only 13 inches alot shorter than stock and rubber and more flexable, and all black! Alot better looking! Reception is better. No noise that I can hear, but my truck is pretty loud.

Default Question

Why doesn't Dodge offer a power antenna? I mean most of the time I'm listening to my playlist, or have aux. plug in. Not to mention some of us spent $$$ to have a very well equipt truck and to have that ugly stick is just stupid.

I agree, especially for people like me who only listen to Sirius and preloaded music. I've had my truck 5 months now and have never listened to AM/FM yet.

That's the same company with an internal antenna and it comes with a cap for the old antenna mount.
