If you are going to do the 4ft whip thing, might as well get a sirio pl5000 performer and 145 mag mount.  You won't be disappointed.  It's worth the cost and the antenna folds down as well.  Check out DNJ radio, there is some videos on there showing the antenna. This is JMO.  But you are talking a couple more ft of antenna, it's not that much.  And the increase should be noticeable with a roof mount, even a mag mount in this case, stay away from the k40 mag mount, they are junk IMO, and the Wilson's are hit or miss these days as well.  The sirio line seems to be well constructed and of good quality. I know I keep preaching this, but I promise if you get a decent antenna up on the roof of that 4 runner, it will talk a lot further than it does now.
