    Had me thinking - so out came the tape measure.
    A solid 10' wide mirror tip to mirror tip.

    Every now and again I have to quantify things, though it usually wastes more time than the intention of offered analogy or story deserves.

    Fishing stories can't be proved, all else begs research.

    Then again - maybe I have a narrow truck!
     
    Grijon and double yellow Thank this.

    Believe you me - when I'm tired, had enough for the day, been crapped on enough in a short time, my cherub like demeanor flies out the window and EVERYONE gets judged, stereotyped, pigeon holed and cursed.

    I'm glad I helped you somehow get to the end of your day without going postal. Gives me some motivation too.

    Cheers.

    I originally grabbed the tape last weekend to measure my mattress, and then forgot about it. Lol

    Already did my part, 3 tapes under the seat, 100 footer in the side box and a height pole in the headache rack. Never have a excuse for being off on dimensions.
    Oh, my mirrors are 10',
