    Anybody got any good or bad reviews on those magnetic cellphone mounts they sell at TA? I drive a Freightliner on some pretty rough terrain sometimes, and I'm wondering how well they hold the phone in place. I've already wasted money on a few different Bracketron models only to find out they work well but they don't really fit in with my setup. Thanks in advance

    I have mobile spec one with the pull out rest for phones and it works fine. Much better that the earlier version that had the smaller mount area and no rest. The auction cup sticks to dash easily and stays. Cost about 20 bucks.

    I don't know about Freightshakers, but I have been using a magnetic mount in my Volvo for two years and phone does not fall out. I put those magnetic holders in all of my vehicles. Love them

    I swear by them cheaper than a lot of the other ones, and work better too.

    THis is what I use - Phone WILL NOT fall off
    I scored a couple off ebay with no box for like 10 bucks. Usually about 15-20 - well worth it
