    Same here.. Newer homes have the tiniest 2-car garages. Both wouldn't fit even if empty garage. Wife's Q5 gets garage with work bench, motorcycle, bicycles, etc...

    Damn, and I thought I had low miles....2010 with 54k


    Mine has been garaged for 4 out of the 7 years I've had her. Double cab long bed easily fits in my garage with plenty of space on both sides to open doors all the way out, and to open tailgate if I need to. I always back into the garage to make an escape faster.

    Outside, since my carport has 3 lawnmowers and a golf cart in it. IF I know really bad weather is coming, I can juggle stuff around and fit it in, but not on a regular basis.

    Mine stays in the garage day and night, I only use it occasionally. Since it's black, it stays looking pretty good most of the time.

    Blank slate, ready to start
    Parked outside on the driveway for the past year and half until recently my landlord fixed the garage door motor. Had a bench press and other things in the garage until then, now they are all pushed up to the side. Just barely fits with maybe 6 inches of space front and back combined. Also I have to get out of the garage so passengers can get in.

    FL weather isn't too bad so far (knock on wood) so driveway for me, plus squat rack, barber chair, home improvement projects and Harley take up most of the garage:thumbsup:

    Oh yes it is, that hot sun will bake the clear coat right off of your roof and hood over time, and then the salt air will start surface rust. Unlike the north where vehicles rust from the bottom up, down here they rust from the top down.

    My wife's T4R gets one section and the other 2/3 go to my real love. Poor taco sits outside all by its lonesome.
