It's been a while. But get quadlock. You won't regret it. I run them on everything now.

I have the RAM snap in type and it works great. It's tight and feels like it's going to break the ipad glass but it works.

Setup in the Tacoma was this.
And now I fabricated a dash mount for the F250 using the big ball and same ipad mount.

Got the tablet mount and arm from Bullet Point, arm is super strong and does not move, the ball joint on the tablet end is fine for highway use, but no match for off road trails, no matter how much you tighten the nut, it tilts down slowly over bumps and the tablet slowly slides out one side or the other, last trip both the nut and the connection to the tablet broke. First item from Bullet Point I have not liked. Going back to the RAM mount TAB Tight holder, its a bit bulky but will take a tablet in a case and hold it securely.

Have the RAM tablet mount and really dislike it because it is so tight. Yep it holds well but I fear breaking the iPad every time I insert or remove it. Agree that the larger RAM ball (C size?) is a requirement for a full size tablet.

I use an XGrip for my iPad. It wiggles a bit on rough washboards, but has never slipped. It has the 1” balls.

I started using QuadLock mounts for my bicycle last year. After finding out how secure the mount is, I have added their mounts to all of my rigs, and have upgraded to the new MagCase. Combined with the Lido IC7100 mount for my armature radio, this is by far the best setup I have yet to come a crossed.

I have the 67D on the 20mm ball the 55 series and love it!!! It stays where you mount it. Did have to switch from the clamp mount for the iPhone to the magnetic mount as it was too dang hard to get out of the clamp with out messing up the mounting arm location. I also have the mini iPad and handheld mounts and have no complaints about them …
Same. I have quadlock on my harley, sbout to have it in my power wagon on a bulletpoint mount. Also have a ram style setup with a quadlock end in my tractor trailer. Everything. Love them.
