What are you guys storing your raptor in other then an actual garage. Was thinking the shelterlogic 12x20x8...any suggestions? Would like to throw my sled on the side if I could possibly fit it too.

I always thought one of these would be a good investment, but I'm afraid some good rain and wind will blow it away or something

Yeh i researched them and alot of people like them, seems if you do some extra work to anchor it in more you should be all good. Just wondering if anyone here has one. I think that size should fit the raptor too. The height of our truck is what lil over 7ft -width same thing and length lil over 18. Someone correct me if im wrong.

I built a carport that attaches to the underside of the overhang on my house and attached the other side to my 8' plus tall fence. It all screws on and can be removed in an hour or so if need be to paint or what not. Cost me $250 or so and took a saturday to fab up. Well and a few days after work to finish up the roof and such. Its all down inside the fenced in area so no one can bitch about how ugly it is but it works just fine. Its a bitch to squeeze my fat ass in but hey! HAhahaaaa.

damn thats a tight fit

Not bad rerally. 1 inch for the right side mirror, what ya can't see in the pic is my 13 x 5 trailer that I back over the toung of and just about put the back bumper into. I can SQEEEEEEEZE my 320 lb self in and out o.k. with the drivers door burried into the wooden fence runner. HAhahaa. Keeps the hail and frost off well.

Most of the time in the day light its a one shot back up but it can take a few trys now and then. If I am tired I just park on the driveway and close the 30' long gate across my drive and its in for the night.

Bdrag I like the setup... wish I could do that at the place im renting but theres a drop off on each side of the house lol. Only thing that seems reasonable is that shed in a box. I may throw it up this weekend depending on what the insurance appraiser says about my sled which is part of the reason Im getting it to store the sled an truck.
