Can you take a photo of the car antenna connection that's in focus?

Enclosed is the photo of a car antenna's mounting. Note it is a single
pin. Also enclosed is a picture of my Baofeng's antenna post. Note that
the car antenna is a single post/pin. The Baofeng's antenna has a pin
inside a mounting. Thus, to measure the Baofeng's antenna you simply
connect it to the nanavna. How to do the car antenna???
The reason I ask is experience with my old Toyota 4Runner's radio and my
new Ford Lightning's radio. The 4Runner radio would work 50 to 80 miles
from a tower. The Lightning will start to fade 20 miles from the same
towers. Is the fault with the antenna or the radio???
Thank you for any cogent answer. larry
