    Garage.
    I don't see the point in having a garage just to fill it with junk and park the cars outside.

    If you have a couple classics/toys that fill the garage already then I guess that is ok....I guess.

    I bought my house specifically because it had a 3 car garage. Enough room for the wifes Jeep, my Tacoma and plenty of space for tools, snow blower, lawn mower and trash cans. I love my garage!

    Mine barely fits in my gf's garage. There's like maybe 2" clearance in the front and 3" clearance in the back... prob about same side to side too.

    If anyone has good ideas for how to make sure I get in n out the tight spot, please let me know. Thinking of getting a convex mirror so I can make sure the sides clear and a tennis ball string or something for the front.

    [​IMG]Had mine in a garage since I purchased back in 2007. Sits next to our 2004 CRV!!

    Mine barely fits in my garage also. I can't walk around it once the garage door is closed. If I tap the front wall with my bumper, I have maybe 4-5" clearance at the rear. Tight fit; but in Florida, would not have it any other way.

    I would have to do some massive re-arranging in my garage to make the truck fit. Double cab, long bed = hard to make room in a garage that is already smaller than it should be. I'd pretty much have to pull within a foot of the front wall to get the door to close.

    Sigh my poor truck sits and sits for weeks outside in the front of my apartment. It isn't my DD. I bought it back in Dec 11 and I just finally hit a little over 1k miles on the ODO :(

    I'm in the garage right now with a measuring tape when I found this thread..

    I think my new one will fit--only a couple inches to spare... :eek:

    Now all I gotta do is get the truck!! (ordering a DCLB 4x4)

    :cheers:

    It use to but since we are in the middle of moving it's going to be parked in the driveway for two weeks before it gets to go back in a garage.
