    Pantano bridge east of Tucson is marked 15'1 but is 15'3"... Railroad (no offramp).

    There are about 5 or 6 bridges between PHX and TUC that are marked 15'7" to 15'10" but 16'0" will go under on the right fog line on some 15'8" will HIT on others in either lane.

    Forget about SR85 to I-8, there are several bridges with the offramp on the other side of the bridge (you have to go under the bridge to get to the offramp).

    If you aren't' scared yet realize that the cheat sheet for overhight through Arizona and New Mexico is about 4 pages long. It only takes missing one of those lines on that sheet to have a really bad day.

    It sounds like a magnetic mounted Gopro would capture some great video on this trip.

    loop 1604 around San Antonio. North side.
    Houston Can not take 610 on the north side. Will smack the overpasses west of I45 I believe.
    Az. you will be taking the goat trail
    Same in N.M. take and run the south rte. across.
    Get permits or look for the pros to move it for you.
