Finding info regarding bridge heights
Just got my class A RV. It height is 12' 3". Looking to find what other RVs used when planning routes to insure you are lower than bridges and over passes?

Go to a Loves or other truck stop and get a copy of the Rand McNally Motor Carriers Road Atlas. I got the laminated version. Any road that a standard sized (height, width, weight) truck can travel on is highlighted in yellow. They need 13'6" high so as long as you are less then that, you are good. Just plan out your route using the yellow brick road. I got the laminated version partly because it will last longer and partly because I like to use a dry erase marker to pre-plan my route.
Also, there is a section for each state with a list of all low clearances. Texas is the winner here.
This atlas is great. For some reason, it was waaay cheaper at the truck stop vs Amazon. Weird.
Also, I have the Allstays Low Clearances app on my phone. Very good too. Linked to the phone GPS so it will show your current location every time you start it up.
