5th Wheel Too High for a Drive-Thru---Ouch!!

I think it's been seen a few times, it's a pretty old video. It's a reminder that when it comes to RVing, carelessness and inattention can be painful, expensive and even deadly. I don't know if there were any injuries but it certainly looked like the cab was at least partially crushed.

Here is an 8 year old story behind it...

No Drive-thru is high enough for a fifth-wheel. .

It's been posted several times over the years.
But, it's still a good reminder to watch your height and width.

Even having seen the video over the years, I almost did the same thing. Pulled into a Sonic drive in from the rear. Nosed the truck up to the end slot, got out and ordered our food, and had a casual meal in the truck. Getting ready to leave I decided I could just go straight out the front. Started forward, moved about two feet, brain kicked in gear, and I hit the brakes a foot or so short of the awning. Backed out and left the same way we came in. :S

That video is 8 years old and posted ad nauseum.

I worked at an rv dealer that sold pickup campers....we had a guy that drove his pickup into the bank drive thru teller then a couple of months after his camper was rebuilt he did it again at the very same bank....I guess he was a slow learner....
