As a follow-up, I also like the RAM unit because: 1) I can use different size iPads with the same holder (a newer one and a relatively old one as a back-up); and 2) I can also go to entirely different set-up to hold a Garmin unit by switching out the mount being held in place. It's very versatile, and not too expensive.
Also, a caution about Lifeproof iPad cases. Although they are great at keeping water out (I've used them during downpours), a downside is the opening that provides access to the charging port. The case works fine with original Apple charging cords. However, many aftermarket charging cords have larger plugs (the housing around the plug, not the plug itself) that won't fit through the Lifeproof charge port opening.
