    Hey guys, just going to do a little review on my Craven Speed Stubby Antenna.

    My dad first turned onto this when we were waiting for his Raptor to come in back in the summer....he brought this to my attention and said he wanted it. I was skeptic about it at first because how small it was....however it was $20 and it would fit both my truck and his truck if I didn't like it. So I ordered it, put it on and believe it or not...it out performs my stock antenna....and its a faction of the size. I am very satisfied with this product, it looks good and I actually do get a couple more miles out of a station than I used to. Recommend it for anyone who is a radio listener and like a sleek antenna for their truck. :peace:

    It made my truck more aero-dynamic increasing my HP by .001 and MPG by .00000001.

    Sweet.

    Honestly, I may replace my shorty billet antenna for one of these. They're slick. :peace:

    I started to get one of those back in the spring but the reviews seem to be really mixed on them. They look to be great for areas with a lot of radio stations and good signal but no so much if you're already having signal problems with the stock antenna.

    I wound up just cutting about 4" off of the stocker and put the ball back on the end of it.
