RYDONAIR 7" Antenna Compatible with Dodge Ram & Ford F-Series 1990+

Works well and looks great!

I love my 2021 Ram 1500 Classic Tradesman, but I've always hated the stupid 35ft. long antenna. Every time I'd go to the car wash, they'd take it off. It just looked dumb. So I got a wild hair up the caboose and searched amazon for "tactical truck antenna" and found this gem. The reviews seemed legit so I bought it. Arrived in one day. First star earned. Good packaging and easy instructions. Second star earned. The size is great though I wouldn't mind it being a tad bit shorter. Then I tested AM and FM - no signal loss. Remaining stars earned. Now that it's on there, I'm going to use some red locktite to ensure it stays on because I'm sure the thieves in Reno would love it.

When I bought my 2017 RAM a few weeks ago, I couldn't believe that they still have an old-school metal antenna mast on the fender. Most new cars have them built in to the GPS until on top of the roof. Had to get rid of it. This little antenna is great....almost 5 stars, but I'll need to drop one star for this reason: I live about 30 miles outside of Columbus, Ohio, and I did notice a little loss of Radio signal. With the old antenna, I would get all of the HD radio stations just fine, but they did flicker in and out from time to time. With this antenna, it's seems to be "slightly" worse...they go in and out a little bit more often from HD to regular signal. Not a huge deal for me since I usually listen to SIRIUS-XM or Pandora from Bluetooth. If you live within 20 or so miles from a big city, I don't see it being a problem. Super easy to install---took maybe 2 minutes. You'll probably need a wrench to get the old antenna off, but I just hand tightened the new one---it's not going anywhere, and I am confident that it will fine in the car wash without removing it.

Looks and fits perfectly. Reception was better than the original stock one I had.

This antenna is just small in size but BIG on reception. This antenna works better than my stock antenna at about 1/3 the size. I had actually ordered 2 different sizes in case this smaller one would not work very. I've tried others in the past with not-so-great results. This antenna is perfect in size, easy to install, and I can't say enough how great it brings in the signals (and stylish). I will be returning the other slightly larger antenna since I didn't need it or open it.

Like the look and easy to install but have noticable drop in radio reception. I am basing this on 1 AM station and 1 FM station. They both broadcast the local news every morning. When not listening to XM, this is the channel I would listen to. With the old antenna, where I live is on the edge of the range. When driving towards the broadcast antenna, I would normally get clear receiption after going about 5 miles from my house towards the stations. With this antenna I get just ok receiption on FM when going 15 miles closer. AM has to be even closer.

I love my shorty antenna and it was easy to install. use some lock tite, other people love them too

Superb! I bought this as I wanted a much shorter antenna to not worry about automatic car washes. This one is perfect! It is very short, unobtrusive in appearance, and came with 2 machined screws with one fitting my particular antenna slot perfectly. There is a nice rubber wrap that goes around the point where the antenna and the mount meet, which makes for a nice attractive concealment. I'm super pleased with this, and the cost was well worth it. Been through the car wash multiple times already, and no grabbing onto the antenna. Picks up my radio stations just as clearly as my stock one did as far as I can tell. I haven't left the city but for my normal day-to-day it works exactly as I need it too.

Para una ram 1500

Fantastic aftermarket antenna! Easy to install, the carbon fiber ring is a cool finishing touch. Does not move (like the OEM antenna) during automatic carwash. No issue with receiving AM or FM signals.

Looks awesome, hope it works lol Update: it works excellent 👍🏼

Looks great, easy install. FM reception fine, but AM is, as expected, less than optimal. If you depend on AM, this length might not be for you.

It’s very nice aesthetic wise. Didn’t notice much with signal as some reviews complained. My radio works fine. Pretty sturdy.
