But that Outback has basically 10 inches clearance front to back (meaning the man door is meaningless once its inside) and about 4 inches side to side with all the flares and mirrors folded in and all. Putting it in the garage is a total tukas-pain. But ya gotta do what ya gotta do sometimes. Its a two person job (driver and spotter) but at least its possible. And with the doors being old and a wooden prop holding them up (the proper spring cannot be had) ------- I am seriously thinking about a total rebuild on the garage.

For what it is worth, I always figured a proper one car garage was made by starting with the plans for a two car garage, and adding about 50% more space in all dimensions.

I could have put the van in the condo’s garage, but egress would have been from the sunroof, and I would need a Thunderbird 2 setup to get in…
