Looks cool.

For rovers that want antennas installed on the vehicle thus needing 
no setup I have two ideas.

A QUAD - a Four element quad would fit on your truck and could 
even have other bands in the middle of it. The quad is going to 
have sides that are about 5 feet.

What about just bending the ends of the yagi up or down at a
90 degree angle instead of having to remove them and put them 
on.  I should work just fine.
