I have one but it was discontinued 10 years ago. It's an Antenna Specialists
AV-240. It's 4 ft. long - YES, 4ft! It's based on a commercial land-mobile antenna and handles about 150 watts. I've actually talked skip on AM with only a 35 watt amp. As far as what is made now, I don't know of a real good one. The Midland Power Max works OK but doesn't last long. The plastic bakes in the sun. I get about 1/2 the reading on a field strength meter as what I do from a good antenna. If you do get one, look for one with a ground strap off the coupling box. If you can mount a trunk-lip mount antenna on the hood, that may be an option for you. I have an all black 3 ft. one on my Voyager. Works much better than the little glass mounts. Take a look around eBay. They often have new, old stock antennas. Maybe you'll find something there or get a good idea of what is around.
