I remember just how far back a 102" steel whip would bend back at 65
MPH. I guess a shorter and stiffer fiberglass whip bends much less.

I haven't seen any rig with a 9' whip antenna on it. Most seem about half
that long.
Truckers are smart. Anyone driving for long at all knows that a 9' whip
atop a tractor is sure to hit lots of stuff. So the vast majority - if not
almost all - of whips I see for sale at truckstops are much shorter.
