Nah, I think it's something with my truck or Raptors as a whole. My cousin's 2012 Lariat reads small changes like an overpass just fine, where as I'll be lucky to see it move a single degree.

Are you being serious or sarcastic when you say a reading of 3 degrees drives you nuts? My garage (like most) is level to the eye, but has a slight grade to allow water to flow away from the house.

Taxes drive me nuts; people that don't use turn signals drive me nuts, but I have to believe that a 3 degree grade to your garage or slight off-set in your truck's stance (as I read through the posts) is not causing you that much grief.

So would it really bug you to know I'm an IRS officer who never uses turn signals?

Pull in to your garage backwards. Then tell us what it reads
