Measurement please.

I’m interested in ordering a 2022 F-250 Lariat FX4 Supercrew. I test drove one with both the blackout and sport package this combo missed fitting in the garage door by 0.5”. Curious if anyone with a similar truck with the 18” wheels could measure the height to the rear satellite antennas? Thank you in advance.

That may not include the radio antenna but the radio antenna won't keep the truck from coming through the door opening. I went to the dealership (on a Sunday when they were closed) and measured several F-250's earlier in the year when they still had inventory and they all were right at the factory number. I'm really counting on mine fitting in the garage. That's way too much money to have it sit out in the Florida weather!

The 18" wheels come with tires that are 1-2" smaller diameter than the 20" wheels, depending on A/S or A/T. In theory that should make a similarly equipped truck with 18" wheels at least .5" lower.
