In your picture of the garage door you have, it appears you have hurricane bracing that runs laterally across each section of the garage door. Are these screwed into the garage with self-tapping screws? Mine are. If so, just remove only the braces that are below your rear bumper. Probably 2 or possibly 3 braces at most. These braces are probably 2" thick. Mine are 3" thick. Then when you move out of the house, just put them back on the garage. They are only on the garage door for hurricane wind reinforcement. Its a Florida code that all garage OEMs must provide them for garage wind pressure.
All these sardine pics make me glad I live in the country and have a huge attached garage. When we commissioned our architect to draw up a floor plan I said the garage had to be huge! And it is
I could fit 3 humveess in doors open and they'd never touch!
Yikes to tight for me, i just know there would be a time i would be in a hurry and not check to be sure I’m fully in the garage, then close the door only to scrape the bumper or something.
Unfortunately I think I have a new driveway ornament until I move somewhere else. Did the measurements prior to purchase, 231.9" depth and the truck is 234.9". Figured it would be tight but didn't envision this. I worry the garage door is going to shift and get caught on the back bumper once it's inside. I could probably gently rest the front bumper on the wall and gain maybe an inch in the back.
Anyone park day in, day out in a space this tight? If so, you guys have any tricks on how I can park perfectly 100% of the time that won't take 5 minutes of inching up, getting out to check, etc?
My concern is mainly with theft, not so much the vehicle, but sometimes I'm absent minded and will leave my wallet in the car, forget to lock it...
