    So basically I guess I didn't give exact details. Entering garage door is 10 inch each but once I'm in the space is more room and i can easily get in and out. and have foam pads if door extends all the way out.

    Re: Small garage and just got new car HELPP!!!!

    Dude that's crazy. I can't imagine 6000 gallon truck (i googled that oshkosh too) The fact you didn't need spotter makes me feel less of man hahaha But yeah practice and slow and steady as PaulMys said.

    I was thinking of paint tracks that are not permanent but will still last (rains a lot in seattle here though). Any good markers to some strip that will stay put to make a guide?

    Once my car is straightened going forward is pretty good due to the sensors.

    So guess I need some good marking strips so i can alight my car (the bush i mentioned makes it difficult )

    Id just grab some cheap wheel blocks from Harbor Freight, park your vehicle where you want and put them behind the rear wheels, maybe put some tape under them in case they move. Thats what I do, simple and cheap.

    And make sure you are all the way in the garage before hitting the door closer!

    Stick foam weather stripping on the wall so you can open your door without banging off drywall or block. Been doing this for years with no issues
