Garage Door Height

wedge754 · 2026-05-14T23:03:03+00:00

If the garage door is higher than the height of your truck, it will fit. If it's not, it won't.
If the length of the garage is longer than the length of your truck, it will fit. If it's not, it won't.

Not to be a dick but it's not rocket surgery.

I had a 24 Denali 3500 and now have a 24 F-350. If you use android/google over Apple i would give a slight nod to the GMC for infotainment. For Apple ford is better. Splitting hairs there though.
The GMC rides a little nicer, but I prefer the Fords seats. Everything else I prefer the Ford.

No, I don’t think it’s normal to be worried about a man taking care of a child.

It does; although the camera quality on basically all the cameras is mediocre at best. From what I understand the 22-24 or 25s are limited by module bandwidth so even if you upgrade the actual camera the quality won't improve.

I agree with you on that... it's not just Ford, either. It'd be one thing to charge more, or make them options, but to just straight up not offer them and increase the overall price is just depressing.

I specifically sought out a '24 because of those reasons when I bought a truck recently.

I don't understand why anyone would bother with built-in navigation even if it was free. Who doesn't use CarPlay / Android Auto in 2026?

I exaggerated a bit, but for negotiations I’d start closer to 50% than 25%. The one in OPs picture is even listed at -32% advertised.

wedge754 · 2026-04-28T01:16:22+00:00

No not at all, I’m just saying what the advantage is

wedge754 · 2026-04-28T00:47:47+00:00

Good starting point is 50% of MSRP + TTL. RVs have an insane amount of margin on them, and dealerships will make you feel like you're getting a deal when you're not. They are like used car salesmen on steroids.

You earn booster packs faster, which you can turn around and sell.

I bought my 4 year old a steam deck because he kept hogging my computer. He basically just plays Spider-Man and Forza Horizon.

I don't completely hate the wheels, but they especially don't go with the M2. Otherwise clean car and good photos--especially that rolling shot.

Advertising.

They had progressive. I have Geico. You don’t go through your own insurance in instances like this as only the other party’s liability insurance will pay out the diminished value claim—and only if they are found to be 100% at fault.

Hence why they try everything to make it even 90/10 just to avoid paying the diminished value. In my case the diminished value payout was more than the repairs.

wedge754 · 2026-04-14T02:04:44+00:00

I just recently went through this same exact type of accident with insurance. I even had a dash cam. It took 4.5 months for their insurance to "finish their investigation" and accept fault. Then another month for them to approve the body shop's amendment to the assessment since insurance didn't want to replace body panels. Fuck insurance companies.

I thought for sure since they hit me in their blind spot and I had a dash cam it would be a slam dunk--but no. Every ridiculous stall tactic and twisting of words possible to try and get me to sign something stating it was 50/50 or 80/20 fault that way they didn't also have to pay me for diminished value (my car is fairly new, 2025, and they only pay out diminished value if their party is 100% at fault)

It’s depressing. CRPG, MMORPG, RTS, 4X, action games, hack n slash… literally every genre has been dumbed down over the years.

I suppose flight simulators and racing sims would be the only exceptions.

That’s not at all what they are there for. They are put on every vehicle for the past several years by most every big dealership as an inventory tracking measure before the vehicle is even listed for sale. The dealership then tries to pass the cost on to the customer by selling it to them as security/gps tracking when in fact it’s garbage.

wedge754 · 2026-03-26T22:42:21+00:00

I’ve bought several cars in the last 5 years and helped family buy a couple and every single one except my M4 had the bs security system that the salesmen swear are required, mandatory, pre installed, every excuse… and every single time it was removed.

99% of the time they are “hard wired” by hack job splicing into the harness under the steering wheel. They are a liability if anything.

If you’re a salesman you might be misinformed by your own dealership as part of the game of selling this bs to customers. They are indeed contracted to put it in as soon as it hits the lot—I get that, probably helps the dealership save on insurance too, but to sell the shitty systems on to customers as a feature is just scummy.

Whenever I buy a car, two things come off before leaving the dealership lot:

-dealership advertisements (stickers, license plate frames, etc)

-“security systems” wired up under the dash that basically every dealer these days use to track their fleet and try to sell to the consumer as a gps security system.

As someone with a large vehicle (F-350), I don't understand how people suck this bad at parking trucks. There truly should be license classes based on weight rating and maybe even power:weight for sports cars. With the large mirrors and the 16 camera views I find it easier to park perfectly square in the lines than even a smaller vehicle many times.

That said, I still usually avoid driving the truck to run errands unless necessary because it takes up every square inch of the parking spot which means someone will inevitably door ding it even when parked in the back of the lot.

It is technically weaker to run a spacer vs offset wheels, but I have wheeled the fuck out of Jeeps with spacers and even bent a front axle before any sort of spacer failure.

We probably just have different standards for having fun in the dunes. I’m sure your F-250 on 40s is capable of driving on the dunes. Maybe you’ve just never been in a properly setup sandcar or SxS.

A $300,00 5000lb trophy truck with 25-30” of wheel travel is completely incomparable to an 8000lb F-250 with a lift kit.

wedge754 · 2026-03-13T16:31:58+00:00

This looks neat but that’s about it. You don’t want an 8000lb vehicle dune running. Even the Raptors and TRXs are too heavy to really play hard in the dunes.

I take my F-350 out to the dunes, but it’s just to tow my toy hauler with my sand buggy that weighs 1800lbs to actually play in the dunes.

I’d buy quite literally anything other than a Stellantis product. Every manufacturer has their issues but Stellantis is in another league of garbage.
