Well, I just took the long time advice of RR and many others on this forum. I just spent the past two days grounding the muck outta' my Ford pickemup truck. Bought some braided tinned grounding strap and went to work from front to back and side to side, top to bottom. Made chokes and attached them to wires coming from the fuel pump and other places. I now have far less noise coming in through my antenna from the fuel pump etc, and much less ground noise. The receive has improved incredibley, so has my transmit. I can't believe what a difference the grounding has made.
I also can tell you, this Grant XL I just bought from Mdillion is an awsome radio.
I put together a Predator 10k with a 27" shaft, two of the long coils and the stinger cut down to around 8 to 10" - awsome!
I am finally very satisfied with my mobile set up.<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT="">
I can't stress enough the need to GROUND GROUND GROUND anything and everything, it can only make your mobile more like a rolling base station.
