I'm probably going to look like an idiot for asking, but that's o.k. I've looked like one before.

I'm presently looking at a 2008 Adrenaline to buy. I haven't been to actually see it yet cause I'm gonna have to drive a fair distance to get it. It's real CLEAN, so I'm not too worried about it. HOWEVER, I don't see an antenna for the radio on it. My wifes 2008 ST Limited has a regular antenna.

Is the one on a Adrenaline in the box on the roof, is it hidden or what?

Just wondering. It's just bugging me.

Thanx

Radio antenna is on/by the right fender. Some people take them off or replace with a stubby version.

That's what I thought. Will have to get a better pic of it. Doesn't look like a stubby, just a "cap" over the antenna stud. (pic was taken a ways away, so hard to tell).

I've not even physically seen the truck yet. Just some pics. Looks like a "bump" in the fender.

Ok,
Yes mine is a mustang delete kit. Its basically a small plastic nub you screw in place of the factory antenna. It renders the signal strength useless. I do get local stations, But I use the Sat radio all the time. I saved my antenna and at any time can just screw it back on.

Car fax rated the truck a 4.8 out of 5. Service records were all done at a FORD dealership, oil, filter, and tires rotated every time. Had the 100k check- up, trans fluid and filter replaced at 36k, an alignment, and 4 new tires at 59k, at 60k new transfer case, at 63k exhaust manifold replaced, is all cafax shows.
