Lol now this is dedication! Let me ask did you have the mobile mini beforehand? Or did you buy it as a temp garage for the maro? (looks clean inside)

I'd get some foam for the sides of that container... maybe something 1/4 inch thick or less. Just to be on the safe side. Aint gonna protect it if you run into the side... but if you happen to tap the door against it, it should save you.

Man...so glad I built a 5-car garage when I built my house last year! Your welcome to park yours in my garage if you leave me the keys ;-)

Currently have 2 trucks, 1 bike (had 2, sold one) and my camaro and still have room for 2 more cars. Yes, my garage is about as big as my house. All I wanted when I built was a large back patio and large garage - got em both.

Mine is squeezed into my one car garage for the winter but I hardly ever get in or out of it or even see it. My winter truck was parked in there all summer. I guess in the 50's most people just had one car.

I'm single and looking for a small house or condo with, I thought, a one car garage. Having tested the Camaro in a one car garage I have decided I'm not going to work that hard to get in and out everyday. Unfortunately that really limits my choices of small homes.

observe the pics of parking in Tokyo and quit your whining!

Some of you think you're parking experts. Well I guess "expert" is relative!

I do, but also a 1 truck garage too

04Ram2500Hemi · 07-15-2011, 12:31 PM

Ours is a three car garage, but with three vehicles in it, it's very tight. Gotta watch the doors on these cars, they open up big!
