I think the stubby looks way better and zero issues with clearing the garage door, etc.

The stock antenna is good for judging the clearances in parking garages.

I got a stubby antenna recently too. It looks great! I was tired of hitting trees on the trail with the stock antenna.

Huh didn't even think of that. Oh well. Not going 37" so hopefully won't be an issue

Why does the Raptor still have an antenna in this day and age?

Don't those stubby antennas suck for reception? I have an OEM retractable one on my Classic Bronco and when it is extended it is Sky High, looks Cool!

Depends. If your in the city, you won't be able to notice a difference. If your out away from the city a good ways, reception will suffer some. There have been a few people crack their windshields because of the factory whip antenna when offroading.
