= the answer

 

Is my tape measure long enough to measure my garage?

 

I would bet a garage in a condo is under 20' deep unless you have some kind of luxury condo that cost 500k.

 

The real question is, is my tape measure long enough to measure my...

Oh, nevermind.

 

Unrelated to will it fit, but Required reading for 2009 F-150 Supercrew prospective buyers.

 

Ouch!
So much for double dating in an '09. :o
Either Bertha or Bathsheba would have to stay home.

 

Just get a trailer to haul them in...and make them sit in the back. Should take enough weight off the truck you can haul one inside too!

 

I am glad to hear I am not the only one who carried a tape measure with them when house hunting to measure the garage. I can bearly get behind my Super Crew with the 6.5 ft. box and my garage is about 22 feet deep.

 

That is funny. When I was hunting for a house in PA, i did the same thing.

THis time, I bought the house before the truck, so it doesn't fit with the new 6+ inches for the Super Crew.

 

I asked my wife if I could cut a whole in the front of the garage to extend the garage into the kitchen. She wasn't really keen to the idea.

 

i live in a townhouse and my 05' f-350 crew cab 4x4 long bed fit. my 08' screw with the 6.5 bed fits, have plenty of room now to walk around.

 

Same here on the taking a tape when house hunting. Pretty much if you like full size trucks you need a 22x22 foot garage at a minimum. If I were building a home I would insist on no less then 25x25 foot. My home has a 2 car attached that I use to park my ext cab long bed F250 in, and later my Crew cab 6.5 bed in, my Garage is 22x22. It is tight, but I never had to bump the walls to get it in there. Just put down some wheel stops So I would know right where to stop. When I built my detached garage in the back, I made it 28 x28 with 20 foot door.

I noticed that it seemed all newer homes had 2 car garages some even had 3 car garages, but almost always they were 18 foot deep 20 at the max. The homes that had the larger garages seemed to be either on the very high end in price and size, or build back in the 70s and 80s. Cars were much bigger back in the 70s, so I am gusing thats why the builders were thinking bigger when it came to garages on your standard spec homes.

 

what size is your garage

 

Mine fits just fine, because I was smart enough to have built a thirty foot long garage. Come on dudes use your noodle when you buy stuff.

 

I've got a foam rubber pad on the back wall of the garage, and a rubber eraser covering the bolt of the inner door handle (to protect my bumper just in case).
When perfectly parked, I've got about 1/2" between the pad and the front bumper, and the same between the rear bumper and the eraser.
Usually, I just let the front license plate bracket touch the pad.
(This is with my 5.5' bed Supercrew).
