Hi Ken...  Just for information, I have been using a screwdriver made by 
Larry's Antennas  kj7u.com for some time now.  It's the KW version of the 
160-6 meter antenna and mounted to my 97 Tahoe with a custom built mount. 
It's fastened to an IC 7K and works like a champ!
  There are only two disadvantages I can find for this rig... first, it's a 
bit sharp on the tuning, and secondly, it's not the best for on-the-fly 
(read that 70 mph down the freeway) tuning because of the high Q & sharp 
tuning.  I bought the KW version because of the higher Q than the other one. 
Although it is a bit on the more conspicous side, it's been an absolute joy 
to run!  The antenna, mount and all, takes about t minutes to disappear if 
the war department starts making some QRM about it.
   I'll send you some pix of the thing and mount if you're interested.
Good Luck!

Dan W7IDG/mobile CW forever
