    They really should take those signs down. Simply idiotic to suggest tractor trailers ought to clog up Atlantic Avenue instead of staying on 278 to get to 495. (If only I were in charge around here...)

    More like 13'4" at the front edge of the trailer, which is usually the highest point on the truck. That's assuming air bags fully inflated and LP 22.5 rubber. I got bored one day and checked.

    Add 1" if you've got 11r 22.5 rubber or LP 24.5. Add 2" if you're running 24.5 11r's
