Rob, you may have been kidding as you tried to find something to support your idea regarding 1/4 waves, but here I'm playing by the rules and getting back on track, but I doubt many will understand these mobile models I've posted at all.

I just ask the ones that have the understanding, to check out the Average Gain values noted, the source data for these two models of a Pick Up truck suggesting the feed point match, the patterns generated, and the impedance and the resulting SWR.

You suggest in you image above that the slant may have something to do with our success or failure to get a good match in a mobile. You are probably more correct than you imagined, because all vertical conductors near the feed point are flush with currents, as well as the elements note on the mobile that are near the ground and are plump with currents. Just check the red lines note and that will tell you a lot about how these currents might flow on the truck body.

This may surprise you.
