Just perfect is all I can say. No more 70's antenna haaaaa

This antenna is indeed car wash-proof, which is nice. Looks fine and FM stations come in great. AM reception is a but weaker than the stock antenna but it's not terrible. Unless your desired AM stations barely come in with your stock antenna already, I would recommend this product.

fit 2022 ultra limited touring. used 2 small spacers that came with it.
came with 3 spacers 2 small and one large(tall) the 2 small together were a little less tall than the 1 big one.

I installed this antenna on a Ford Maverick. I chose this length antenna because it's the longest antenna that will clear my home's garage door when I choose to park in my garage. BTW, I have no experience with commercial car washes impact on this antenna or the original antenna. I live in rural northern Nevada about 25 miles north of Reno. I tested both the original 8 inch antenna and this antenna while parked on my 600 foot long driveway's 40 foot high hill. I chose mid morning to do the test so that AM radio reception would not be impacted by night time ionospheric skip which can cause distant stations signals reception to drift in and out, something that could skew my test reception results. On a superficial cursory scan of reception there was no difference in reception of LOCAL AM or FM stations. The caveat is that where I live in northern Nevada it's mountainous terrain. So I dug deeper and took notes while parked on my hill for every broadcast channel/frequency on the AM and FM bands. The result was much different. On the AM band I received 28 additional radio stations with this new longer antenna than the stock antenna. These were radio stations in the northern Sierras and the Sacramento area. They were noticeably weaker signals than the local radio stations but they were clearly listenable/intelligible. I did not test any radio reception while driving for safety reasons, I was not going to take notes while driving. On the FM band there was no difference in the number of stations I could receive with either antenna which was to be expected since FM radio is essentially "line of sight" reception with the surrounding local mountains blocking signals outside the immediate Reno-Tahoe-Carson City-Susanville-Portala-Truckee region. In flat terrain FM reception results between the 2 antennas might (should?) be different. A side observation by my neighbor was the longer antenna suggested my vehicle was an unmarked highway patrol unit, especially since my Maverick is the same color as their vehicles....also it seems many (civilian) folks want shorter antennas because they look cool and/or they go to car washes which some say creates issues with longer antennas. My neighbor jokingly remarked drivers near me on highways/roads might drive "better/nicer" thinking I'm the highway patrol.... LOL....for me it gets 5 STARS.

Going down my small street in the country my original antenna would catch in a low hanging tree limb. This new antenna was just the ticket! Perfect fit and great reception. Problem solved.
