    You wont need a light permit (sticker) unless your over 12 wide. 12 and under leave your beacons off.

    And 1 more time after that! The way some of the states have things stated in the permits is confusing as all hell!

    lol the routing through Texas is a good example, tells you to turn or merge on every road when in reality you're just driving by most of them.

    Depending on the load, Florida might require a rotating amber light at the rear of the trailer (visible from all directions)...this will be explained on the permit.

    No need to drop the trailer to fuel unless you just want to...I regularly pull combines through the fuel islands with no problem (13' wide, 14' tall)

    I don't recall Georgia requiring an amber light permit...Nevada used to...anyway, I just went through GA last week and I don't have any stickers from them, never have had any...the company (Maverick) stays pretty up to date on this stuff, I just go with what they tell me.
