Parking Ramps

Does anybody know if my new 2011 SD 350 will fit inside a parking ramp?
More specifically, the parking ramp off of 364 in Minneapolis?
Going to the Twins game on Saturday and want to know if i can park in that ramp...thanks!

Those things always make me nervous in a truck, even if they say the clearance is enough. So I don't use them.

We were there last year and there are many outside lots. Should be easy to find one.

Is your truck completely stock?

If so it will fit, but barely. Most parking ramps in the cities that I've found have a 7' (84") clearance, and your truck should be 80.8" tall according to Ford specs. But you will be scraping your antenna on the support beams. I've had mine in the parking ramp for the MoA.

Go for it, but you might want to remove your antenna.

Specs found HERE.

I work downtown and park my 2010 F350 dually in the Hawthorne Ramp (off of 394). The Hawthorne Ramp is right next to Ramp A & B & within walking distance to Target Field.

I can't comment on that particular one, but I recently went to a Dallas Mavericks game at the AAC and had platinum level parking (was a freebie from work). The first floor had plenty of clearance, but levels 2 and above looked sketchy. Platinum parking was 2 and above... first floor was VIP. Since the parking was paid for and they didn't have other options with better clearance, they upgraded me and I parked with the rockstars
