If 11' 3" is actual height of your MH, you might want to add 6-8". It's good to have a margin of error. It accounts for road repaving since bridge height was measured.

I agree and it's done.

Many, if not MOST routing issue are due to outdated maps...
even Google has not been on every back road there is and some of those old bridges are not known to the mapping companies all gps mfg's get their maps from...

I am an odd duck since I trust my 760 in both my car and rv and so far have been fine.

I actually use 2 GPS, the Garmin RV760 and my copilot/wife uses my GPS I use in personal vehicle Garmin Nuvi-cam. This way she can confirm best route or see a possible better route. It also has the camera, god forgive we get into a mishap that's can prove it's not my fault. Finally I just purchased the following from Amazon to extend wife's unit to make it easier use. Also got a sunshade for both units also from Amazon. The extender is great and solid.

Arkon GPSCM117 14.5 to 18.5-Inch Extension Windshield Mount for Garmin Nuvi and TomTom GPS Trucks and Rigs

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005V...k9L&ref=plSrch
The sunscreen was Shield Glare Visor , COSCOD 7 inch GPS Navigation Sun Shade for Garmin nüvi 2797LMT/ 2757LM / 2798LMT Magellan RoadMate Pro 9165. It might need a little modification for the NuviCam but just some foam/rubber incerts in the top.
