Any cab clearance problems with 04 4x4s?

My friend just about sh#t a brick the other day when he was washing his 04 LAriat Supercrew 4x4 and found deep gouge marks in the paint on the roof. Turns out though it clears most places in the parking garage at the airport where we work, there is one particularly tight area with a low hanging sign where he scraped his roof and didn't even realize it. So I was just wondering if anybody's encountered places too tight for their 04s to go.

One big factor in me hesitating getting a daystar.....I like to go down into detroit and parking decks scare me already.
daystar and I want to put clearance lights on.....pretty close.

I haven't hit anything yet but i have been in several places where thi clearance is only three inches above the truck. Drive slow and dont hit any speed bumps.

Here is a silly question - how tall is the 4x4 Screw Lariat? I'm guessing about 6'4"? Anybody actually measured it?

Hey dzervit, I actually did measure it before to help someone out in this thread:
Lariat 4x4 SCREW height
It was no more than 6' 3 1/4". So any partking garage that has at least 6' 4" clearance throughout should be o.k. (except the antenna takes a beating).
