I had a FireStik KW2-B on one of my previous cars for about 3 years and was pleased with it; however, if your mount can support a KW4 (or longer if feasible), the result will be longer range. My KW2 was mounted on the trunk deck using a gumdrop mount. I also have a KW4-W on one of my current vehicles and this review is relatively the same as my review of that antenna... It's a durable antenna that's made in the USA. The antenna is top loaded (coil is at the top) and has a fiberglass whip. If you are new to CB radio, don't forget that you'll also need a mount, coax cable, and an SWR meter for tuning the antenna. More information on tuning the antenna is available on the FireStik website (at the bottom of this product's page or under "Tech Help"). I'd recommend reading FireStik's "Tech Help" section and taking their advice when shopping for an antenna: "At least two-thirds of the antenna should be above a vehicles roof line for optimum performance." This antenna adjusts by removing the rubber cap and trimming the antenna down with a pair of diagonal pliers. Be warned that, if you over-trim, you'll be looking at adding a spring or quick disconnect between the antenna and the mount in order to lengthen the antenna again. If you want an antenna that is screw adjusted, take a look at the Firestik II FS series with the tunable tip. Over-all, I believe this is a great antenna.
