I have an in motion dish set up for Dish Network service. Glad the last owner paid for it. It does work and probably works very well on I10 cross Texas where there's no trees, mountains, over passes and what ever else that will block the signal. Loose signal lock for more than 5 seconds or so and the antenna goes back into a search pattern attempting to regain. Being roof mount and with our stays mostly in heavily forested camp grounds east of the Mississippi River the antenna line of sight is obstructed more often then not. As such the carry out gets used more than the roof mount.
Dome antennas work well for Dish with full access to all possible subscriber features. Not so much with Direct. You'll need to move up into the Traveler series for HD with a Direct subscription.
My recommendation would be a carry out and a DVD library for when traveling down the road. Also a TV mounted where a driver can see it is not a good thing to have operating while in motion. Troopers frown on such.
