First of all, I would choose the roof; the highest point of the vehicle with all of the metal below it is best. Since you are going to run power, a puck mount and a 17 inch shaft 10k will insure a solid ground. You will still have problems with certain low hanging branches and such; that is just the nature of that beast.

My vehicle is 5 1/2 ft and I run a 6 1/2 ft antenna (Sirio Z-180) on a mag mount and I have more than a few problems with height.
Deal with that as it comes.
