I'd love to have an electric vehicle and really like the idea of powering the house in the event of outages. Brilliant! About those 200k reservations-- I wonder if all those people have assessed their garage space. I've owned an F150, they are huge.

In fact it appears that Ford is the one assessing garage spaces. The 4x4 Supercrew will fit in a standard American-sized single garage door [1]. The only question is length. I measured my garage and have talked to many F150 owners. The 5.5’ bed leaves inches to space in the average garage, and people set up a system to park them - tennis ball hanging from ceiling, parking block on the ground, etc. My own garage has a ceiling-mounted, motion-activated adjustable laser pointer above each parking space, which seems incredibly ridiculous, but hey, I’m a newcomer to this whole suburbs thing.

In my old house (built in 98) I had a 2000 F150. It fit in the garage, but barely. Garage was 20 foot deep, with a cement ledge of a couple feet where it attached to the house. I had to back the truck in, the back tires would bump against the ledge, and there was about 1 inch clearance on the back and front bumpers.
