Will my Tremor fit?

My problem is bay length. Stupid garage isn't long enough for the truck to fit. Time to move
 
So I didn't even think about how my new tremor that I'll be getting in a few months might not fit in my garage.

It's a 7ft garage, but I measure about 82"

I've heard the tremor measures around 83" tall.

Sounds like I'll be parking out in the driveway.
It is a tight fit, mine is outside. Actually too long to fit in my standard 21’ garage as well. Thinking about a third stall mod to a 8’ door and bump out the back.
 
Totally understand that. I have 4 parking ramps/garages available at work, and due to the Tremor size, I can only fit into one of them.
I'm actually not sure I believe the parking office. one entrance has a clear 6'5" clearance bar that leads to the B and C levels, but the other entrance doesn't have that bar and leads to different levels (p1 thru p4). It's a weird massive and complex underground garage. on the P levels some areas have low hanging duct work which probably is about 6'5" but most of the area is fairly high without any such ductwork. I might be fine if I park away from low hanging pipes or ducts...the clearance they 'advertise' might just be an absolute min for the whole garage.

I think I'm going to take my jeep there, which I just measured as ~71-72 inches (76 at top of antenna), and literally duct tape a 14 inch tall empty cardboard box to the roof and see if I hit anything on the "P1-4" levels.
 
Nice, I might have to do something similar then.

Mod your garage... that's a new one.

I just had to "mod" my garage this past weekend. Truck measured 84 and a quarter inches, with the garage door all the way up it measured 85" I had to rip out the top 2x6 header to get my truck to fit . I then put the top aluminum trim back in but backwards so it laid flat. I just need to repaint but turned out okay.
 
I had the same concern as I waited for mine to arrive. The opening on my 7’ tall door measures just over 83” to get in under the weatherstripping. To my delight it fit with a bit of clearance including the two satellite antennas mounted on top and with clearance lights.
You will have to change out your regular antenna to a shorty cause the stock antenna rubs hard.
Hopefully you got power mirrors because with a 9’ width Door it’s just too difficult to get in and out on your width. I have a 24’ depth and you’ll need most of it for I have about 39” combined front and back of clearance.
Make sure your garage door opener doesn’t have a bracket hanging down, I had to cut a couple inches off mine.
So my Tremor is a garage queen and all my ideas to increase the height, width snd length to my garage is water over the dam.
 
Nice!

That is what I wanted to hear. I did get the power mirrors.

I'm sure my wife is going to love me after she tries to squeeze her Subaru in next to my Tremor.

Well the parking office wasn't lying lol...

there is approx 86 inches of clearance entering the garage and no problem getting all the way down to the P levels...however coming out in the drum/turret ramp there is low handing concrete ceiling with only about 77-78 inches of clearance and all sorts of paint scrapes on it.

Unless I can get the parking office to grant me access to the oversized truck area then a Tremor ain't going in that garage.

I'm probably going to get one anyway and commute on my motorcycle and wife's car since we only have to work in the office 2-3 days a week once we get back from covid19 work from home protocols. They're planning to let us work remotely at least a few days a week afterwards. Another option is to just buy a used beater to commute in and keep the truck for towing a trailer and weekend fun.

I respect a man who has his priorities straight.
 
Hm, the tremor is big, just a little too big - my double garage is too short in length - only 20ft- (but high 9ft an width enough also 20ft).
So i cant close the door(n)

my single garage aint high enough - missing one damn inch (also tight in width) - i`ll cut the wooden frame of the door one inch rn.... :oops:

not really a truck for german conditions....
 
And now we know why Ford's customers asked corporate to lower the Super Duty by 2 inches.

I've been toying with the idea of fitting the truck in my garage since I got it. I did some extra measuring and head scratching this morning. At this point, height-wise, it'll be an impossibility since ground to lintel is exactly 84 inches, leaving me no room. Also, length is a bit short at 230 inches or so. My only hope is to convert the third car garage to an 8 foot door somehow (demo work!) and lengthen it to fit the truck. Uh.... how about no. Something tells me it'll cost me more to do that than to protect the truck from any potential hail damage. Fortunately, I live in a weird corner that rarely sees hail. If I do, it's no bigger than a penny. Let's hope it stays that way, and it wasn't a fluke of the past few years.
 
So now i cut the frame & the truck fit in :rolleyes:
But thats ridin on a razor blade, only inches on each side ( dont ask how i get out of my Tremor....)
So i guess i replace the door by a large wider model shortly - that the first big invest for the Ford :D

I also should clean up the garage an move some of the shelfs...

Good Morning,

I can also confirm that my Tremor fits in my 7ft Garage by maybe 1/2”. Had to program to garage opener to pull the garage above the top of the opening to get it in. Changed the antenna to a shorty and have to use the double opening of my 3 car Garage to be left of the openers arm that hangs significantly down below the garage door when open. I have a fairly deep garage so it fits with about 10” to spare. I have to pull right up to the wall.

no leveling kits for me as it would not fit if I raised it all.

I am just glad it actually fits in the space. ?

Has anyone added outdoor sheds/modified carports to fit the Tremor that they have pictures of?
 
Mine sits outside...keeping watch.
 
Looks like this thread made it on youtube :D
