    Hey I-87 to I-287, I-95, I-295 and finally I-495 is the one I have dialed in on google maps and it’s the route set on my Qualcomm (I only mention the Qualcomm because even though it’s a pos the one thing I heard it won’t do is route you under a bridge); appreciate the confirmation

    All seriousness, is your truck a mid roof, or condo?
    Get a tape, or borrow one & find out how tall it is. If it's a mid roof you're probably ~11'-11'6" tall & can get under some spots others can't when you're empty, or have a low load on..

    I'm 10'11" at the stacks, 12' on my whips, but those can come off in under a minute if need be. Looking at new stacks, I like to come in under 10' on the new ones..

    What I like to do when I’m not sure about something is close my eyes for 5 seconds and when I open them everything’s okay, for better or worse rofl I should’ve brought mine with me but forgot; what kind of tape measure do you use? All I picture is the tape bending on me for the regular carpenter’s ones

    If it's what I have seen. The pipe has its own special trailer setup. Seen 'em where they have tandems attached to each end of the pipe.
