Super cab height
I’m looking to buy a 18’ F250 lariat super cab. There isn’t one close to me at dealers surprisingly. Does anyone have a F250 super cab, gas, 18” wheels, 4x4 and plow prep package, marker lights. I’m getting conflicting answers about the height. My garage is 81.5” and want to know if it will fit inside. Thanks!

Cab lights aren't the tallest point of the cab. At stock ride height you are looking at the rear center of the cab around the brake light and that is 82 inches and change speced as you are looking at. 83 inches hand change for the 20 inches wheels. We know because we measured several different super duties for our height limited garage door before we settled on our pick.
But I think you are barely going to make it if at all. It's going to come down to whether you have any type of an Incline at your door to help you out. You may want to look at a slightly smaller rear suspension block to reduce your vehicle rake.

Is this measurement from the floor to the top of your garage door opening or the floor to the bottom of the garage door when its opened? If it's the latter, you can adjust your garage door to open in a higher position. The standard opening is or just about 84" high. My 18 CC 4x4 with 20" wheels and cab lights fit (after I adjusted the door)...
