A 1/4 wavelength - 108 inch steel whip - is still the the unbeatable champ for a mobile antenna even today. But I would run the Wilson 1000 if that is the best you have. I use a RM/Italy Z-180 (equivalent to a Sirio 5000 Performer which is still available today); the extra length it provides over a Wilson 1000 (over a foot longer) is next best thing to a 1/4 wave antenna you will find - IMO . . .
