My long box screw fits into the garage with just a few inches to spare, top and rear. I tap the front bumper into the front wall on entry to be sure I'm all the way in.

Then again I custom built the house and made the garage 40' wide and 30' deep. 😀

Damn first world problems. Should've made the garage 40'x40'. 😠

My old garage was the same way. I actually took some of the pool noodle deals my kids would play with and put them on the garage wall. I would then back up until I saw the noodle start to compress. That meant I was in and avoided scratching my truck or damaging the garage walls.

What kind of boat is it?

You don't usually see a 26' sitting on a triple, my 27' is on a double, my buddy's 29' fastech is on a double also.

As for the OP, you didnt look at the brochure to see how long the truck was before you bought it?

I have a Stubby Antenna. It doesn't get as good of a signal, but that doesn't really bother me, since I go to school in Nashville and the radio towers aren't too far away. Plus, it looks better and doesn't scrape anything since it's only about 2-3" tall.

This seems to be a common problem we pull our truck into the garage and then the last one in the house has to close the garage door or you won't be entering the house.

I have to back in the truck or I wouldn't have enough room to get out. Also, I have about a foot and a half of clearance behind the truck doing this.
