In my case I had a 2007 Ram 2500 that just barely fit in my old garage that had 6’6” clearance. I then bought a new version of the same truck, but the new one has satellite radio. Well, the little satellite antenna dingus sticks up above the roof just a little bit. So the new truck is just under 6’ 6 7/8” so I was just barely too tall thanks to that stupid antenna! That’s when I realized how many of the garages around were too short. I don’t park in a lot of garages, but am always paranoid about going into new ones. You never know how well they measured. I like to play safe and allow a few inches for error. I don’t want to be the guy with the truck wedged in the parking garage!
