    Yes I have. Company Tacoma with tall aluminum shell on it. Had a co worker in the passenger seat. Sign said 6ft clearance. We both knew it was close, but I cleared the bar on the way in. We then removed two suitcases from the bed of the truck and tried to drive back out a different route that we came in. That's when I hit the top of the shell. Not sure if taking 80 pounds out of the bed was what caused it or not, but I cleared the same bar again on the way back out. Got lucky and didn't "can opener" the top, just deep scrapes.

    Haha...not doing it...can't make me!
    I have been through the same situation in San Francisco, the antenna goes crazy hitting all the height markers. I was freaking out the first time too and I only have a 3" lift.
