Does anyone know if there is a map of some sort that has the low clearance and no truck places marked for Chicago? I'm there all the time. Usually I just use street view. But data is getting expensive and I'd rather drop some money on a good map. Maybe something that has it divided up in neighborhoods or something similar. So you can atleast see the small streets and what not.

Cobra is from Illinois too. That's why you'll see on the cover of their GPS boxes a picture of a interstate in Illinois.

Illinois does contribute something to trucking other than 1099 trucking companies lol -
Use the search feature people. It's why it's there.

I have that low clearance map also but it is not made anymore.
The road atlas from any company does not have all the low clearances listed for Chicago, It is pretty simple for the streets you can and cant run after a while. I run a concrete truck there and don't care as much about the truck routes for streets but know which way I can and cant go for bridges. I am only 12'2" though so its much different for me. The easiest way is to watch and mark them in your map. I did buy a City of Chicago map book with Chicago and all the surrounding suburbs in detail. Where do you usually go to in Chicago?TruckDuo Thanks this.
