Height makes it by an inch or so...

Length makes it by a couple of inches...

But really only because I can steal a couple of inches from the tandem garage spot in front of it...

If you want to get rid of the overhead garage door opener, there is a screw type that mounts to the door roller; quieter, too. I have it with a battery backup and wifi so it works off the phone as well.

p.s. I have a 6.5" bed and the truck fits in the garage, but it's a pain because I can't be sure it will back in under Electric, so it stays in the carport and the other cars get the garage. I wish the F-150 Prius had a way to force it into electric-only mode and "fully charge the battery" mode.

Yah, I’ve looked at those. As soon as this one dies, that will be my next one.

I know an F150 will physically fit in my garage (tested that a few years ago with a work truck, and when I owned that orange thing ?), but since I plan on keeping my wife and my boat around a little longer, the F150 stays in the driveway. Guess it's time to find a house with a bigger garage ?‍♂

Alright! Finally my turn to post pictures. Thanks to input from you guys on this thread, I knew height wasn't a concern but length would be my issue. I make it into the garage with maybe 4 inches (2 in the front and 2 in the back) to spare. I'll have to get something to put up against the wall that I can feel as I slowly drive up to it. If anyone has any ideas on what I can use, let me know!

I'm in the same situation. I rely on my 360 cam package to watch the front license plate bracket get within 2 inches of a small wall hanging decoration. I measured to make sure my camper shell would fit but I'm still a little nervous about it. We will see when it ever shows up.

It fits. Nice and snug. Actually I tried out the fit with my FILs GMC Sierra first (same length based on specs). I have about 18" to spare
To be fair I actually have about 27ft of depth in the single bay, but this is in the 2 car bay that I normally park in. Kid sleeps above the single bay garage so didn't want to be waking him up at 530 in the morning.

Purple and Gold garage mats… Epic profile pic… and lives in Tuscaloosa!? #GeauxTigers!

Sorry I know this is a truck thread but when you see a brother who also lives behind enemy lines you gotta say something. ?

I have like 3-4 inches total to spare in my garage so mine will likely look like this as well. If I remember correctly you live in FL and 20' garages are very popular here. This car measures like 19' 8" lol

Unfortunately due to how they built garages in our area in North Florida, they put the HVAC in the garage, so even our Odyssey barely fits. Since we can't even come close to getting a truck to fit, I went with the 157 wb 6.5' bed. :)

Wow- I feel good to see that I won’t be the only one with a tight fit. I think I’ve got 21’ wall to garage door. It’s gonna be super close and when the garage door is closed, it means I won’t be able to use the side garage door if my truck is in there. Now… if it will ship from KC I’ll be able to really find out haha.

For awhile I used a ping pong ball hanging on a string, like your tennis ball, but I had it adjusted to contact the windshield, not the front bumper, so I could see when it touched. Unfortunately, I had to abandon that scheme because my wife thought it was fun to watch the ping pong ball bounce as she came to a screeching stop. :rolleyes: My next best idea was a big iron bumper, like trains use when the tracks end. Or maybe an arresting hook setup, like jets on an aircraft carrier.:unsure: In the end for me, a carefully placed 4x4 seems to work just fine.

Even with my 157" I will have a little over 20" from the front bumper to the wall.

157" '19 Lariat Sport here. I back in, and I have 40" from rear bumper to back wall and 6" from front bumper to garage door. I built my house around the garage knowing that I have been a truck owner since '96 and I'll always have a truck to park in my garage.

My '14 Raptor on 35s EASILY fit with plenty of room to spare height wise as well.

HOLY CRAP that's a massive garage. I'm jealous.

Great information. The guys that lift their trucks super high now have measurements for an ideal truck to fit their beasts.
