Parking the beast in the garage?

[deadlysilent]

Park it outside... it’s not sports car! Problem solved.

I've got a few inches less clearance than you but parking in the garage was very important to me. I cut a pool noodle in half and screwed a few pieces of it to the back wall and use the magnified reverse camera view (anyone else notice that the little + symbol only shows up about 70% of the time when you shift into reverse?) to make the light disappear between the bumper and the noodle. If I do touch the noodle, no harm done. This leaves me 2-3" of clearance between the bumper and the door. I also used some of the 3M grip tape that you can see in the foreground of this picture to make a dotted center line I can line up with the grid lines in the reverse camera to help lining up centered in the single car bay.

I do it old school. 1. My micro 2 car garage won’t accept the raptor driven into the garage - door would hit bumper. I have to back the beast into the garage but first have to remove hitch or weather tech bumpstep. Thankfully I have a raised step that runs the width of the garage in the front. I back her up until my rear wheels hit the step which gives me 2inches to the wall. I have to really hug that step to be able to put the door down with 1 inch clearance. Retirement home to have 24 x 24 garage.

I back in until my WeatherTech bump step touches the back wall.

I raise the electric eye on the garage door ( the one that prevents small puppies from getting squished) to my bumper level, when I pull past the light bean a small green light goes off on the device and I can see that in my side mirror.

We use this for the wife’s Grand Cherokee. Super simple and easy to adjust. Most people don’t notice it on the wall either.

Laser assist also, similar to this one below.
Tennis balls are for grandpas.

Same here for other vehicles. Rap stays in the driveway for me.

Some of you guys a too funny. Is cool thing or something to keep it outside?? I live near the water(salt) and it is never nice on my cars left outside. I have a company car, so the Raptor is driven on my leisure. There's nothing wrong with keeping it clean, not having to clean off the snow when going out in a storm , running out in the rain to get into it and keeping safe from dirtbag thieves. All good reasons for me to keep it inside. Paid good damn money for it and want it to last.
