Stubby Antenna Available

[npspears]

For some reason it isn't listed under their Ranger products, but Builtright Industries has a stubby antenna available for our truck. I've been using if for a few months now and I haven't noticed any reception difference, and that's while listening to both satellite and traditional radio. It's also on sale right now for the holiday season - as well as their bedside molle rack systems. https://builtrightind.com/products/perfect-fit-stubby-antenna-ford-maverick-2022

Just thought I'd point it out to yall since it the antenna isn't listed under all of the rest of the Ford Ranger products.

Oh, and in case Builtright Ind. is listening, please make a bulkhead molle rack system like you have done for the F150 and Ford Superduty trucks! Pretty please!

If I'm not mistaken, the stubby has been available for quite some time now. I know there are previous threads about it.

Ah crap. I was trying to be helpful. Wonder why it was pulled from the Ranger product page?

I have a stubby installed since 2019...I don't use radio so it's just for shortening the antenna...

Feel sorry for all you with stubbies?

Love my stubby. I put some loctite on there too, to hopefully help detour any dirtbags from snatching it; they stole the .50 cal off my F-150

We need to have the 5G community flood them with emails. Asking for bulkhead Molle rack system for 2019-2023 Ranger. I recently emailed them again and they said the more emails they receive the higher priority they will make it.


Also they have a Black Friday sale form now to Nov. 27th with everything on sale for all makes and models.

Yeah...you don't got to worry about me. I think I've emailed them 3 times about the bulkhead molle panel. Last thing they said was that they'd eventually get to it, but they probably just want me to stop emailing them. ?‍

Hey I’m curious, I have the standard one with no issues. What’s the purpose of the stubby one? Not dissing just wondering what the benefit is. Thanks

For one thing, looks....lower and sleeker than the OE, and works just as well.
Primary reason is that many of us home their Rangers in a garage, and the OE antenna may or will hit the entry way.
My OE would not clear our garage opening, but with the stubby I have a few inches to spare.
Some have roof racks that the OE's height interferes with, so a stubby will allow it.

If you lift your truck and garage it, also if you have a roof rack and just for looks can’t really think of any other benefits. But it still works well I have one installed on my truck. Just for looks for now but eventually plan on getting roof rack.

Perfect. Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. I’ll probably get one lol
