your antenna is just slightly taller than your truck
if it hits just barely(< 1")...you should be ok....

i had a 97 F-150 with a small factory lift and it fit...as long as you dont have it lifted...it should fit. I would advised dont go plowing into the garage and hope for the best...lol
take it slow, open the door and watch to make sure you are going to clear... but if your antenna clears you should be fine

i didnt even think you might be talking about length not height....
my bad...
before the f150 i had an extended bed extended cab 80s model chevy 1500
it was a boat...and it fit...i had to put blocks down to keep me from running into the wall and i would smack my knee everytime i tried to walk inbetween the trailer hitch and the garage door...
in short...unless you have a tiny garage you should be fine

I am assuming you are talking about length not height.....I have not really tried to squeeze mine in there yet but the other day I tried it by myself and had to quit. It doesnt look like it will fit. I like to be able to walk around my garage, that was not possible the other day when I tried it.

Yeah guys I was thinking length not height. Sorry. This will be the longest vehicle I ever owned. I wasn't sure. My Garage is standard size from what I can tell. But we just bought the house and we haven't moved in it yet. Im also out of state. I would like to keep the NEW truck out of the weather if possible. .Im hopeing I can squeeze it in there. Thanks guys, Oiler.

yes it will fit length wise, but barely. I have a DC Taco and the door clears the rear bumper by about an inch. Talk about close!

The answer is "Yes, but it will be a tight fit".
I have an F-150 that is a regular cab with an 8' bed and it fits into my garage with about 2" to spare on either end.
My parents have an '04 SuperCrew that easily fits into their garage, but ouf course a SuperCrew is 1' shoter than a Tundra DC.
I say forget the garage and park it outside. Its a Toyota, it can take it! Now, if you had bought a Ford, GMC/Chevy or Dodge, then by all means park it inside (all those are sissy, prettyboy trucks) but you bought a Toyota, so no worries.
Id park my F-150 in the garage but it leaks oil, so outside it stays!
Cap'n
