weBoost's former Trucker & RV optimized for 3G and voice cellular antenna is a classic omnidirectional shaft-mounted design that does not require a ground plane.
In the 3G era, cellular devices only needed to be concerned with the classic cellular band (now known as LTE B5/B26) and the PCS bands (LTE B2/B25).
And the Wilson RV/Trucker Antenna earned a great reputation over the years for serving these bands extremely well.
In the age of LTE though, a lot more bands are important, and the classic Trucker was not designed taking these into account.

Cellular antennas can be a vital part of your signal enhancing strategy to get a better signal, and thus better cellular data performance. They come in many shapes, sizes and varieties.
They can be used directly connected to your mobile hotspots or cellular embedded routers, or they might connect to your cellular booster. They come in omni-directional vs directional, single vs MIMO, and might support different frequency bands. They come in combination antennas with Wi-Fi and GPS.
But most importantly, is your installation options on your RV or boat.
So before choosing an antenna, be sure to understand all of these variables - and keep in mind that there likely isn't a single 'one size fits all' solution here. You may need to make compromises, or even have speciality antennas for challenging signal areas.
