LONG ARM
The long arm vibrates too much for use with the suction cup in a car. It has to be restrained at the gps end, or solidly attached at the base end.

EXTEND YOUR GPS!
I used the RAM mount to put a GPS on my rembent bike. The GPS is now far enough from the frame to allow me to also mount a headlight.
It was trivial to switch out my existing shorter arm for this one.
Pros: more length means more accessories! Cons: more length means it'll knock into more things Recommend: YES Tag: ram mount long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review, long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review

EXCELLENT SOLUTION FOR INCREASED LENGTH
I presume there are many instances where 6" is better than 3", including my application. I needed the extra length to get my iPhone up above the steering handle & brake lever on my recumbent tricycle. I was concerned that vibration would be more noticeable with the increased arm length but it has not been an issue. The 6" arm is rock-solid, and has all of the adjustability of the 3" version.
Pros: adjustibility solidarity Recommend: YES Tag: ram mount long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review, long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review

NICE EXTENSION
I went with a 6 inch extension. It was just right, I don't think I would go longer due to the bike vibration and wind. Easy to install and remove.

LONG ARM FOR PEOPLE WITH SHORT ARMS
This product is a high quality aluminum extension arm. Being aluminum it is not likely to break like plastic models I've used. It worked beautifully with my RAM Mount systems. The extra length makes it easier for navigators with shorter reach to get to the GPS touch screen. Also, when torqued down it stays put like it's supposed to.
Pros: good quality Recommend: YES Tag: ram mount long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review, long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review

LONG SOCKET ARM
The short Ram arm that came with the GPS unit for my tractor wasn't long enough to mount the unit where it would be clear of the machine's controls and still allow easy access to the GPS. The long arm, in combination with a double 1" ball and the short arm, made it easy to get the unit up and out of the way.
Pros: it works. Cons: none Recommend: YES Tag: ram mount long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review, long arm b-socket ram-b-201u-c review

VERY GOOD PRODUCT
When I purchased my original RAM camera mount I went with a 3" arm. After using it a few times I realized I should have gone with the 5" to allow the camera to clear the windshield and give me a full range of motion.
The new addition has done exactly what I wanted and now I can get great railroading pacing shots from any window in my truck.
Thanks for your service and outstanding product.
