I would appreciate any thoughts, comments, experience, horror stories,
or tips about self moving a 40 foot mast on top of a pick up truck,
with over bed rack. The move might involve some highway but certainly
neighborhood streets.


I drove a 25 ft mast back from Dallas to Altus (about 240 miles) on a
boat trailer with no drama at all.

I reckon a boat trailer with the 40 ft mast overhanging the bed and
cab, and a flag on the rear overhang might work for you, some early
Sunday morning when nobody's around....
