This past summer, I had to park in a 6"8" garage at the beach. I have V codes, F350 blocks and 305's. I removed my cross bars when I first got the X. Needless to say, I barely fit. I had a buddy ride up the garage with me after I dropped of the kids to watch. He said I should have plenty of room because there were Explorers with the rooftop carriers parked in there. When I first started in the garage, he said I had a few inches of clearance. I was nervous the whole week.
