    Hello,
    Yes, as the title states...pretty weird request, but need to positively know the answer about the fit before I pull the trigger.

    I am about to start the purchase of a retirement home in Sahuarita, but I need to verify that my 2018 DCLB TRD OR will fit inside the garage.

    My current home is in CA and I am going to purchase this AZ home and a friend is representing my interests. My rep and the current owners have measured the garage space and we're all quite sure it will be a snug fit.

    The garage measures 19' 3" in length from the back wall to the inside of the closed garage door.
    My trucks specs are 226" or 18.833'. But, the garage has some unusual features that must be tested.

    If there is anyone in the area, with a truck that fits my specs above and has a moment to put their truck into this garage, it would be greatly appreciated. I will pay for any gas expenses that you incur.

    I will not be able to comfortably sleep at night, not having proof positive that my truck will fit.

    PM me.

    Thanks,

    John

    Actually, any 3rd Gen DCLB TRD OR could confirm the length and proper fit.....

    2019 4dr offroad fits in my 19ft long garage just fine...now there is not alot of room to maneuver in front or back of the truck with the door down. But, it does fit.

    truck 18' 10" fitting in a garage 19' 3" that is only 5 inches to spare, 2.5" on each side.
    I want to see the picture.
    Also check to see if the door will close. Sometimes the foot plate that protrudes inward.

    What is on the other side of the wall? it might be possible to modify the wall allowing the front end to have more room.

    I am confident it will fit with minimal room as you mentioned, it will be tight. My front facing camera will allow me to get very close to the opposite wall, leaving nearly 5 inches of clearance in the rear.
    I will gain about another inch by removing the front plate holder. The front plate is not required in AZ. But, here in CA, the plate holder extends out an inch from the bumper.

    Right now, in my current garage, I have a bump stop where my front tires hit and it leaves me about 2-3 inches from the rear bumper to the garage door. The bump stops prevent me from running into my washer/dryer.

    Good idea about modifying the opposite wall, we'll have to take a look. Not worried about maneuvering around the truck when the door is closed.

    Its been measured twice, with a tape measure. But, there is nothing better than a test fit.

    I have a DCLB and my garage is 19'4" from the wall at the front wall to the garage door. My truck fits and I can squeeze between the front bumper and the wall to the other side of the truck if needed. I'm pretty sure if I switch out bumpers later on, the truck probably won't fit. I am most likely going by that area next weekend heading to Las Cruces and could possibly take a quick detour and help you out if you can wait until then.
