Getting better at parking in my garage!

Finally home for 38 days and I think I’ve parked maybe 6 times in my garage since I bought my Passport on April 13. My skills are certainly improving and I’ve only turfed two curbs because of the drastic size difference after 13 years in my CRV!

Yeah, that is a tight fit, even with the mirrors folded. Welcome home! Ken
Yep - My garage situation is absolutely ridiculous!
However, I’ve never parked my honda’s on the street and risked them being broken into, stolen or messed up from the salt air.

I wish buying a home or condo with a bigger garage in So Cal was as easy as buying a 2019 Passport. :cry:

We've read about the tough housing situation So Cal, are you tied to this area or can you relocate? Just a thought. from PA.

I am a freelance technical director for live events, so I could live anywhere there is an airport. However, like many other millions in So Cal., I am here for the weather...68* the end of June makes me happy!

OK, yes you do have far better weather than PA, it was 7 below zero February 1st here. Also, you'll need room in your garage/shed for a snow blower.

Ha! Yes, no room for a snow blower!
Take care of that beautiful flag you have hanging in there....

I find the parking sensors fantastic! I have no trouble navigating within inches of stuff in m garage.
In the confines of our garage, all the sensors seem to go off at the same time making no sense to me but telling me that I'm close to a lot of walls! I'm almost comfortable with the spatial dimensions of the PP so parking it should soon be a non-thinking process, oh, and the folding mirrors are a real asset to the close confines of our garage.

For parking in my garage, after a while I began to understand which sensors are triggering by looking at the console display and you are right, all trigger at least once. The front sensor allows me to get within about 2 inches of the wall, which is something I could never do with my Civic.
