garage width is 95.5", truck width is 86.3", too tight of a fit?

Pour a 6 inch high curb and truck can park itself

My garage is 106” wide and it still feels tight when I pull in.

I have a 17' wide door, wifey has hit it twice, I used to have 2 doors with brick in the middle, wifey backed her Caddy into it, brick gone, Caddy gone, win win? I park my Raptor across the street at my other house I bought, not much chance of her hitting it there............. women drivers, no survivors..... just sayin'

I am considering upgrading to a new Raptor from a 2012 Platinum. My garage length and height looks ok but I have those 2 single doors vs the 1 big door so my door opening is only 94.5 inches. My question is does the top down view camera from the front view help when pulling into the garage that is that tight? Per the specs is looks like I will only have 4 inches on each side for the wheels.

I don't think the 360 is all that great. I'm not sure but I think you'll lose some of the 360 view if the mirrors are pulled in. That said, I pull into the garage with just inches to spare on some obstacles each side of me and I think you'll be fine with 4" clearance on each side. Remember, the mirrors of the Raptor are the widest part of the truck and the same with as the Platinum. Only the fenders are wider.

I have a garage with dimness 95.5" wide. I'll be backing in with the 802a package. Since the truck is 86.3" wide, will the 10" be enough of a gap? (I'll have more than enough room to open the doors once in)

Currently doing it fine in a F150 FX4, but thinking the extra 6" will make it tight.

Mine is 95”. I gotta drive in nose first else I can get out. Just look at my profile pic haha
It fits but the passenger can’t get out. Once inside, driver’s side has lots of room.

Other side of my garage has a dumb angle so the truck won’t fit. Driving the car inside the garage feels like a smart car lol

Your garage looks very similar to what I have.

Should be doable, I squeezed the truck in a garage with 1” to spare per side... however I decided it wasn’t worth the risk of hitting the fender or bed. So I park it outside till a two car garage becomes available at my apartment complex.

The 360 view doesn’t change with the mirrors pulled in. The cameras must be on the part that doesn’t rotate. The cameras don’t help when the tolerances are tight though. I found out last week when I was testing how hard it was to pull into my garage that is 6” wider than the truck.

Your going to be close. You can always push the passenger side towards the wall as your pulling in and put a pool noodle on the wall to protect the door. Pulled my truck in Saturday because of the hail we had here. It barley fits for depth. Width no problem it’s a 3 car. My new house I’m building the garage will be 31’ deep. So I can’t wait for that.
