I use the Midland MXTA26 mounted on the talegate.  The nice thing about this antenna is that it is perfectly tuned for GMRS, right out of the bag - no cutting required.

Note that the rear-talegate is not the best location as it does not have an optimal groundplane, but it works very, very well based on my (extensive) real world testing - even though all the radiotards proclaim that "it wont work at all" ... Ignore the radiotards.

I too use the MXTA26 (mganetic mpunt) but mounted on a plate I made to mount at the hood (Drivers side).  Works well for me. I did run the wire thru the door edge tho.

I have this exact same one and it works great. Had to make a mounting bracket for the top of my truck but it is well worth it.  Using an amplifier with this antenna works really well.
