Mud Flaps?

I live in Tennessee and I've heard that it's illegal to not have mud flaps. Is there like a certain height the truck has to be?

Look up the regs in your state's dept. of motor vehicle's web site. Typically the rule is to cover the tires down to at least the center line and as wide as the tread. Easy enough to make the flaps removeable for trail use:

I live in White House. It's probably about a 15 minute drive from Bowling Green, KY. Most of the people here have probably never heard of White House, it's about 9 sq. miles. Haha
