Roof height???
Any one here have an actual roof height for a 2017 350 4x4? I am wondering if a new Ford will fit in the same garage my 2003 250 fits in? My 6.0L has been fun but I think it's time for an upgrade!

Also very interested in this. My 6.4L 4x4 clears the garage door by 2.5" now. Any test drive of a new 2017 will include a drive into my garage.

I had to pull the top trim off the garage opening once for clearance. Now I have an 8' high door.

The only specs I can find say 81.5" for a F250/350 4x4. This is supposed to be with the standard tire which would mean 18's. So if you go 20's you will be 82.5".
Some of us are already asking if we can change out the 4" blocks for 2".

I lost the link but there was a chassis cab brochure floating around here that had a ton of measurements in it, no idea how those translate to a non-CC.

Either way, I have 83.5" of clearance so I think I will be good on height with my 20's :-) and I will have about 4" to spare on bumper to bumper if some other assumptions are right.

Snug as a bug in a rug. lol
