    A saw a truck awhile back that had a pole set up on his truck as well as his pole car. Not Gunna help you at speed but if you're creeping under I trust my pole more then I trust yours.

    Just guessing here...his pole car may be set 3-4 inches higher than the load as most do. Then if the car hits something...the one on the truck would be set an inch or less higher than the load.

    I have no idea but I just think it's smart to have the ability to verify for yourself.
