Just got a new 2015 Ford F-450, here it is. To say I'm excited is an understatement. Hopefully I'll be able to get the toy hauler out soon and take some photos of it hooked up.

Very nice looking truck. I see the garage door is open. Will it fit under the eve without scraping the clearance lights?  Mine (F250) has about 1" to spare......

Thanks and good question and one I was wondering earlier today. My F250 would barely fit in so I'm doubting this truck will clear the door opening with the lights. I don't really care for the lights but found out it's standard on the dually. Either way it'll be too long as my F250 had to be parked in at an angle and it barely fit. I hate having to let it set outside but no way it'll fit inside. There's another smaller garage to the side of the house but doubt it would ever fit in there either. Right now it's full of dirt bikes, tool box, work bench, and a mower.

When we built our house in Louisiana I installed 8' garage doors in all the bays, I thought that would do with no problems, then I bought a new superduty and put a 6" lift kit on it. Well, then I was wishing for 9' garage doors... Seems there's never "quite enough overhead clearance"...
Anyway, doggone nice looking truck. You'll like it except on a sunny summer day when you first get in it. WHEW it's gonna be hot !!!!!

Upgraded in fall. Can't wait for warmer weather.
Here's the new rig.

A lot of thought went into doing that side like that. The only thing I would change is make it wider so I can put the slides out then its parked over there. I only went 12' but didn't have a camper at the time so I didn't think about that part. Live and learn.

Nice set up, I've just started building an area so I can have a metal RV carport installed, I'm going big, should be 12ft wide 12ft high and I'm probably going about 40-42ft long with the end being partially closed along with the side's.

Here's our new TV. I know it's not the biggest and baddest, but it will haul our camper :-) Whenever we "upgrade" from our 238ML, it will likely be a class B/C so a larger TV won't be needed.
2014 Grand Cherokee TrailHawk, V8 with tow package. I've ordered a new Tekonsha P3 controller and harness as well as Grand Aero tow mirrors. The next step will be getting the Equalizer hitch setup for the new ride. I'm crossing my fingers that it won't require any adjustment, but that's not how my luck rolls, usually.

It is actually taller than that ounce you add the roof, the legs are 12ft then the roof add's another foot or two so it will be tall enough for anything that is road legal.
And on another note, Thanks for those pm's

The ceiling in mine is 14' 5'' I have plenty of room above my front AC. Good call.
