Mobile balun thoughts

I'm almost finished installing a bugcatcher antenna on my Vitara mini SUV.

I'm using a GLA 480 coil, 4 foot stainless bottom mast, and either 60
inches of AL top whip or a similar SS whip. I'll use a 12 to 16 inch cap
hat on top of the whip

Should I put a 1:1 balun on the setup or not?
