I bought the 5.5' bed solely so it would fit in my garage.

^^^^ Like he said. Now if you have a "standard" (if there is such a thing) two car garage, then chances are it will not fit.

I can get my FX4 in, but it's nose to wall, *** to door!

i can get my truck in the garage and i class mine as an avg size garage but i have seen smaller and larger garages. How about you measure your garage and tell us it's access width and height and the internal dimensions so we can let you know. Saying will a truck fit in my garage is like saying will a motorbike fit through your front door.

That's a tough question. I'm on the west coast of FL so I loose about 6" of space due to a beam on my garage door that keeps it from buckling in a storm. I can tell you it's front to back on my garage w/ the 5.5 box. 6.5 will make it but i have to back in sideways and my 3rd car isn't useable then.

The F150 brochure says a 6.5' SuperCrew is 243.7" in length.
So just over 20 feet.
I went with the 5.5' bed so I could get it in the garage and have a little room left.

I have a XLT 4x4 Supercab with the 6.5’ bed and it barely fits. As someone said it is noise to *** and there is no room to do much of anything else. I had to clear that whole side of my garage just to make it fit. I have a 2 car garage, I guess you could call it standard.

My 09 Screw 5.5 didn't fit (3 inches too long) so I cut a hole in the back wall of my garage and framed it out like a big window. I built a box that sticks out about 16 inches and resided it. I back the truck into the new opening.

The neighbors thought I was nuts until I explained what I was doing. They thought I was putting a window in the back of the garage.

My 2-car garage is almost 25 feet deep.

To the original poster, you need to get out your tape and measure your garage! You can't just ask a generic question "i have a 2 car garage, will my truck fit?" All garages are diferent.

Back in 04/05, I was house shopping for a year and I carried my tape with me and measured the garages at every house to make sure my 04 FX4 Screw would fit or not. Most of the time, the height of the garage opening was the problem (too low), but most seemed to have enough depth. These houses were from the late 70's/early 80's.
