    When you cross that invisible boundary marked by an itsy bitsy 'Welcome' sign from NY into VT and it isn't STAA approved...... I think VT has stake in the game at that point.

    I wish you luck in the endeavor tho, bud.
    Person I am, so long as it doesn't kill you, I also hope I get to chuckle at a bit of misfortune. Lol.

    Edit: I don't think you understand just how much Vermont hates truck traffic.......

    That atlas is available at any truck stop.
    Why don't you buy one and actually look for yourself?

    Or, you could just go in and look at it. No one will stop you from checking out the atlas.

    I'll bet it'll be closer to 13-7 than 12-7 because NY used to allow an extra foot for snow build up in the winter.At least that's the way it was back in the day! I've been retired 11 years and haven't done NY in over 18 years.

    I have one, of course LMAO. That's how I knew there was a low clearance to begin with. I just didn't want to walk out to the truck to get it. That's where my bud @HalpinUout stepped in.

    He should pass with stacks unbent. 13-10 will fit. Use the NYDOT OS/OW tool to see what will actually fit anywhere in NY. Go to this link and find the "Launch Pre-screening tool" link in the sidebar to the right. Find the bridge or enter a route with your dimensions. Easy peasy.
