Host Cascade Height

I'm considering a Host Cascade on a F350 dually and need to know what the total height will be. I have a 12'4" garage and want to be able to park the Cascade on the truck in the garage.

Are there any Cascade owners who have measured their height? Or, can anyone else point me to this information.

Thanks,
Ken
  • I know an Arctic Fox is about 9' tall. It has the floor starting above the wheel wells rather than above the bed rails. I suspect the Lance will be about this tall too.

    Do you think a Lance 1172 on a 4x4 F350 diesel dually will come in at under 12'4"?

  • The Host's are about 9.5' tall. Overall height will depend on your truck height. Mine is under 13.5' but over 13'
  • The height will depend on the truck. 2WD vs 4WD. You can measure the height of your bed and add the height of the camper. That number should reduce a small amount with squat from weight. I think in most cases 12-4" will be a bit too low unless you don't have A/C on top.


  • Don't believe 12'4" is high enough. I take my TC and put it on a modified boat trailer and put it in the garage. Would never clear the header on the truck. I like the boat trailer method anyway because I tow my quads on the trailer behind the camper and used boat traliers can be had for almost nothing. Took a bit of modification but then end result was a multi purpose trailer.

    I bet the Host on your dually will be pushing 13' over the ac unit.
