almost fits...

C4RACER · 11-14-2006, 10:51 PM

I am thinking if I remove the "fake sink" as my wife calls it - which is just a storage bin for all her crap - the walk way will be wide enough to keep her happy. The Titan is only 5" longer than a Suburban which we always parked in the garage, but that 5" really cut the depth of the path towards the pantry and fridge significantly. Sorry about the mess, garage needs some cleaning - not on the top of my priority list at the moment...

Man, I'd remove a BEDROOM to make room for my TITAN inside, and out from the AZ cold ... lol

Mine fits with enough room to scootch thru in front of it, and 3/4 of an inch between the rolling door and the bumper ... Salesman said it'd fit in a standard garage, wasn't kiddin either...!!

Just bloody barely is right. If I pull mine in and juuuust kiss the back wall of the garage, I've got about 9" clearance at the back.

It looks like a garage to me, he just has an extra fridge in the garage and the carpet you see is probably a just left over carpet or a large rug.

Anyway, I wish I can fit my titan in the garage too away from the damn bird droppings and the sun.

I have to back my Titan into the garage, there's a ledge that sticks out about 2.5 feet from the wall and when my front tires are up against it the bumper sticks out of the garage.

Needless to say, I've got backing into the garage down to a science. The truck isn't sleeping outside.

Man, you guys are crazy! I rather have the elbow room in my garage than having a freaking big azz Titan sitting in there. That is unless you got a really really really deep 3 or 4 car garage or something.

I hate having to walk sideways around cars to move around in a garage. I'd prefer the workspace instead. It's funny to hear all this talk about people garaging their trucks like they're prized antiques when they usually don't even keep them long enough to pay them off. A truck is a truck and they're meant to be kept outside!

Titan CC and Murano in my 3 car garage...plus filing cabinets, extra fridge, workbench, etc ...and there's still plenty of room to walk around.

Anyone who parks their truck outside in Pollutionville (aka L.A.) must have a love affair with a clay bar.

Prized antiques in the house...and...

...My truck is paid off.

C4RACER · 11-15-2006, 11:08 AM

It's a garage guys - what, you don't keep an extra fridge for "beverages" out in your garage?

Pathway in front of the cars has some remnant left-over carpet to make it nicer when we go out there in bare feet in the winter!! Hey, it even gets cold in CA ya know.

Anyway, turns out the wife wants the "fake sink" to become a real sink someday. So my idea of taking that out won't work. Or maybe I need to look at relocating the sink to the 3rd bay that we currently don't use. I wanted to avoid doing anything that prevented that 3rd bay from use if needed, at least allowing enough room for a smaller car. My wife parks her Mazda outside now because she leaves so early in the AM, but it would be good to keep the bay open just in case. Maybe I can re-arrange some things and work it all out. Wife would rather have the Titan inside too, she thinks houses with big garages that still have a bunch of cars parked out front look a bit on the "white trashy" side.

Of course, somehow she manages to overlook our side yard that leads to the back shop where I park the race car - that looks about as white trash as it gets. Open car trailer, stacks of wheels, a couple beat up sheds for storage, dog crate, piles of car parts, oil containers, a dryer and so on.

Absolutely!!!!!!! I thought that was a requirement for any well-equipped garage? haha

CVTITAN · 11-15-2006, 12:11 PM

My truck hangs out about 2 feet in my garage and only clears the top by 2.5 inches...LOL

C4RACER · 11-16-2006, 10:29 AM

I came home around 11pm last night after a nite-ride on the mountain-bike. I had planned to pull the Titan in the garage so the wife could get an idea how much space we were dealing with in front of it. Much to my surprise - her car was in there!! She never parks in the garage.... Oh well...

BigA · 11-16-2006, 10:46 AM

I've found I get less scratches just letting it outside, trying to sqeeze around the truck in the garage was causing scratches, mostly not from me.

**Carbeaux** · 11-16-2006, 11:00 AM

If mine were going to fit, I'd have to take out the fridge and back the truck in. Heck of a choice there. I'd also have to move wifey's car outside. That's not going to happen, so I guess the fridge stays.
