Thats another reason I didn't want to go with a vent mount. This one is solid.
It's not where it attaches to the truck that moves- the mount itself moves at it's swivel. I tried tightening up the hand nut but it still adjusts itself downward.
Edit:I just used a pair of channel locks on that thing and it seems solid now. Time will tell.

I just started using one like that. Very handy,; my only complaint is my phone (iPhone 6 +) moves the mount due to being heavy so I have to adjust it once in awhile.
I went with a ProClip angled phone mount and put a WizGear universal stick-on magnet on it. The magnet is so strong that if you get your phone within a couple of inches from it, it'll grab it mid air. It doesn't block the vent at all even with the Note 5.

Am currently swapping in a new battery, my old one barely had enough juice to crank over after playing the radio with the key on Accessory for about 45 minutes. Picked up a 800 cca/ 1000ca/ 125 reserve minute group 34/78 dual terminal for $80.

Am going to grab the old battery and mounting hardware out of my wrecked Suburban, and run a dual battery setup. Running a dual battery system with another of the same batteries, just have to order some 1/0 wire to tie the two in parallel. Gonna have me 1600cca's of cranking power, and 250 minutes of reserve!
