Does your Excursion fit in your garage?
Does your Excursion fit in your garage? Not to gloat or anything, but mine fits with a little room to spare.

Mine fits and I can walk all the way around it. I got lucky, because when I bought it, I was not sure.

My X is just a silly inch too tall. Of course the eight inch mobile phone antenna mounted on the roof might not like it either.

I was concerned about this. I tore off a small piece of trim and took the truck to my house to try and park it on one of my test drives. It fit except for the radio antenna, so I bought the truck and put on a new short antenna.

Auto Zone has several. A "limp" piece of rubber and a "spiral"coil. I chose the latter. Looks and works fine.

The "coil" one is 15 1/2". Has a 7 "coil" wrap about 1/3 the way up from the bottom. The "rubber" one is about 12", looks like a "limp p-----" at 70mph, didn't like it, it however worked well. With other one I can receive Chicago on AM 150 miles away.

Mine does too! If it weren't for that concrete "lift" into my garage, I don't think the antenna would hit.
