Thanks, I planned on something like that and probaly the old tennis ball or such hanging from ceiling to stop me from backing up too far.

I have a similar charger cord issue to deal with….I’ve been looking at this as a solution…….. https://www.rockler.com/workshop-accessories/workshop-organization/ceiling-track

I’ve seen people show photos or on YouTube with outside charging. Their cords sometimes run under the garage door or just along the driveway from an outside mounted charger. So it can’t be terrible. I understand ideally I’d like it off the ground especially to reduce a tripping hazard.

Yeah, my goal is to alleviate the trip hazard…keeps peace in the family ?

I’ve been charging outside lately as my 14 yr old garage door spring failed recently….the door came down hard, damaging it…have to replace it since they don’t make the sections anymore. I bought this to keep the pressure off my FCSP charger cord…it was the only one I could find that would fit around the charger’s ~0.8” Dia. cord…. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BK51SVB1?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

I get my new Lightning delivered tomorrow (bought it out of state) and the only thing giving me heartburn is whether it’s going to fit in my garage. Per the specs, I should have a 5 inch clearance

Oops. To get 3 more feet I had to relocate a few chainsaws, bicycles, lawnmower, tablesaw, raft of tool boxes, heavy shelving, 2 massive rolling shelves, Lewis Winch, golf clubs, rolling tool chest.. and I’m still not done ?! And my ‘99 7.3 F250 used to sleep there!

How did it fit? After getting a build notice from Ford yesterday, I measured and we have 8 inches to spare.

I was so excited when I was able to close my garage door. I mean with like 3 inches to spare. I bought bumper pads and installed them on my back wall

boy, now I'm going to admit that I'm thankful that I have a open, pull-thru carport, with a horseshoe driveway to the back of the house..... it's so much easier than having to back in, or deal with garage 'doors', and 'tight' spaces.... now, if I could just pull my CAMPERs thru, too ... oh well : /

My garage parking hack. Get the truck placed perfectly and then placed a piece of duct tape on the floor that perfectly aligns with the top-edge of the front license plate holder (have to have them in IL) in the front camera. Since the camera comes on automatically when getting close to the front wall, I can easily get the positioning perfect (with about 1 in. to spare in the rear).
