What size is the opening in everyones garage they are putting their 1500s in? Im expecting a wide number of various sizes. Ultimately trying to figure out if mine is gonna fit. Im thinking Im good, likely gonna have to close in the side mirrors.
 
I'm no help here, but I'm facing the same question. We'd be using a "basement garage" that my Grand Cherokee barely makes it through the door height-wise (I could clear it easier if I lowered the air suspension to the parking height.) I measured out the dimensions of a Ram on our floor and it's pretty tight if I want to have access to things on the three non-garage door sides.
 
96" Height by 105" Width and yes I pull in my side mirrors, and luckily they are power mirrors. 21 feet deep which leaves me 6 inches in the back and 12 inches in the front.

They won’t fit in a lot of garages that say they are 20’ long... I’ve had that issue.
Currently fits in my garage along with my wife’s Lexus RX but I back in and hug the wall on my passenger side for it to work. I think my garage is 21x21 or so now with a normal size double door
 
Mines a 7'x 16' door. I do fold my mirrors in to get past the opening as close as possible, then open them up once they clear the door to watch the side of the truck as I pull in and get as close as possible to the wall on the passenger side.

My Garage Height is 7' even and 21' in length. Height is no issue. Length is tight though. Only have just enough room to squeeze around by the back wall of the garage (21 Rebel Crew 5.7 bed)
 
Does anyone have a recommendation on a good garage parking aid - laser, etc..
 
Back in and use the camera and sensors is what I do. I have a tennis ball hanging for my wife so she knows how far over to be when she pulls in
 
Mine is just over 250” wall to door which gives me a little over a foot to spare. It’s easy to back in to within an inch of the wall with the camera. The pic is a bit misleading since I can fit between the front and door when it’s closed. After almost 3 months it’s easy to back in every time. My door is 9Wx8H and I don’t need to fold the mirrors.
