Default Long Range AM-FM Automobile Antenna

Hopefully this isn't deemed too far off topic for this newsgroup. I am
looking to improve the AM-FM broadcast reception on my 1995 Chevrolet
Silverado pick-up. I have done some searching here for similar posts and
the ones that I have found refer to both Crutchfield and C Crane. I am
familiar with both companies, but I can't see any long range automobile
AM-FM antennas listed. Does anyone here have much experience with this?
Can I expect to vastly improve my AM-FM range with a better antenna or are
they all going to be pretty much alike?


Does your car use a whip or window antenna. If it uses a window
antenna then the omni-directional whip antenna might make a
difference. But don't over-pay for one - just get one from Pep Boys.
