I started with that. I then used 6’ of 2” PVC painted black as the pole. I drilled two holes through the pipe for eye bolts. Ran caribiners through the eye bolts and attached the flag to them

Now that’s a great pic! You can’t beat a beautiful flag waving in the wind behind a gladiator! What size flag, I don’t want to get it too big and it touch the ground when stopped . Then again, I could probably make the pole taller!
Thank you

3x5. That will give you about 24” of ground clearance at a stop if you put your top eye bolt within 3-4” of the top of the pole

Hey, I think that building a flagpole is much better for you than buying one. I had many flagpoles and each of those each had several shortcomings. Now I have a flagpole made by my self, I think that this is the best one. More than that, I put on mine, Solar Flag Pole Light. I found it on https://www.amazon.com/Flagpole-Energy-Battery-Illumunation-Vont/dp/B00YBDA7DC/ and it's my best-loved piece. Especially night, flags are reckon out of this world. So, for building the best flagpole, you should have a strong stand, flag and Solar Flag Pole Light,
Heh. If that isn't a shill comment, I don't know what is. Especially since the same username is posting links to that light in every forum they can find on the internet right now.

Isn't there something that mounts in the middle-front of the bed, where the flag would come to rest in the bed of the truck? Or maybe outside the bed on the passenger-side-front of the bed, for those of us with a tonneau cover? Seems like that trailer mount sticks out really far.
