Driving to myrtle in july would like a car mount. Would like input on the best out there! I'm leaning towards the arkon seat rail one with the 18" flex pipe.

I have 5 of these installed - in all of our vehicles.

Samsung Galaxy S3 / S4 / Note 2 / 3 Car Dock - CraigsDocks

They are expensive, but there's nothing even remotely close to them that you can buy anywhere. They incorporate a USB connector right into the dock, so you just slide the phone into the dock and that's it; it docks by itself. Fits with any size case on the phone as well, even a Zero Lemon. They are individually machined and built by hand; one at a time. If you want the absolute best, this is the case.

I use it with Car Home ultra...can't beat that app. Turns on my bluetooth, turns off my WiFi, sets screen brightness to 100%, turns off screen timeout...and all sorts of cool things, and I don't have to press a single button; I just dock it!

I went with the Arkon seat rail in both of my cars and love them:

Works great with my Note 3 and Nexus 7 tablet.

I've had three window mounts over the last few years. Every single one of them dropped off the window while I was driving and with the phone attached. Not good when you're on a motorway and the whole thing falls into the footwell! I tried wetting the sucker and various other 'fixes', but each of the three fell off more than once. So, what did I do? Started using blue tack to stick my mob to the dashboard. Been doing that for the last 18mths with my HoX and now the N3. The phone hasn't fallen a single time and it works a treat. It's a lot cheaper than those fancy shmancy cradle things and works better too. What's not to like? :p

I'm using a Clingo vent mount right now. You have to wash it every so often, but I love that it is univeral and will not block button on any phone ever (LG being a possible exception). It's biggest flaw is it does not launch any sort of car mode or car home.
