I just moved the cones so no issue but learned a valuable lesson. I knew parking would be an issue but I was more worried about the width then the length before, now I can see both are an issue with a long bed dually.

Those of you with DRW trucks, do you normally just take up two spaces? I hate to do that but don't want someone parked 2 inches from my door either. That seems to be what I usually see around here as duallys are pretty common.
My Ram Dually will fit in between the lines with both rear tires touching the lines but not over the lines. I don't have a problem with it but have been driving big trucks since I was 16 years old. Some parking lots the spaces are short and I have to hang over the front line a bit but it seems to fit between the lines fine.
