I have seen HF wips mounted on the rear of vehicles either on the towbar or a right angle brackeet/other bracket attached to something fairly substantial on the rear of the vehicle. Rear wheel mounts are good provided they are earthed. If you are not going to use the radio when mobile a long wire is worth the effort.
Moonraker antennas made in Tasmania are also very good. We used them on helicopters in PNG where everything works on HF. Think it was an AT230.
