I'm not sure of where they are measuring the height. I know there are a lot of good truckers out there but lately their courtesy on the road is suspect.

I agree ! sort of,,,, courtesy is lousy everywhere, not just with semis though, nobody seems to have any courtesy anymore not cars , bikes ,pickups or anybody, I just took exception to the bashing of truckers because you were pizzed at your provincial government, didn't make sense to me.

I heard they have something like this where I am at, and I had someone tell me yesterday that with my handicap tag (yeah I got one now--Boo--but I need it) I cannot put more than a 5" lift on my truck -- WTF?!?!

Then again I would not put a lift or anything like that on a truck or ANYTHING without side step... After my experience of gettin up into Big Brother (35"tires, 5" lift) without them, just an 'Oh ****' handle, I am never doing that, you can still see where I would bruise up every time that I got into that Jeep... but it was fun

I agree with the fat chick comment, but see that is why you have the HEMI, remember - fat chicks cant run that fast for that long.. you will be LONG gone LMAO

And another thing to prevent hitting on fat chicks -- LEAVE THE BEER GOGGLES AT HOME!!!

well i know here in missouri its just the bumper height, you could have 15" lift as long as the bumpers were at a certain height. ive seen trucks lifted so high i would even take them on pavement but they've had custom built bumpers that were really low, looked goofy as all hell.

Here in BC Canada any suspension modified 10 cm (3.9") up or down must be inspected by a certified shop. Also the bumper height must not exceed 75 cm (29.5 ").
