2023 F-150 Lightning Lariat
Hi all,

Waiting to receive my Lightning and I’m trying to reorganize the garage to make it fit.

Does anyone have the dimension from the ground to the top of the hood? I can’t seem to find this anywhere. I need to make sure the nose of the truck fits under some cabinetry. Thanks in advance!

I have a 2023 Lightning Lariat with stock wheels and tires. I’m looking at around approx 50” height at front of the hood and approx 53” toward the windshield. Hope that helps.

A wood frame? Measuring tape wouldn't tell you a foot?

Keep in mind if you ever want to load the FRUNK while in the garage, you need the height. I had to raise my ceiling hanging racks so the FRUNK would not hit.

I wanted to see if I could park at an angle in my 2 car garage. I figured out I technically could, but it would be tight and not easy. Decided the driveway was the way to go. Built the frame (very basic) with spare wood I already had in my garage

Sorry to hear that.

When I was buying out first house long ago, to me housing the vehicle's in the garage was an absolute requirement. I was done with the weather beating the hell out of them and cleaning off snow.

When we bought the F-150 in 2013, I wanted a SuperCrew but wanted a 6.5' bed. Couldn't do both, so got a SuperCab.

When we got the Lightning, it went outside. For 7 months I watched the weather beat on it, trails of water down the sides. Was glad when I finally found someone that would pay my asking price.

If we had another garage, I would probably have another vehicle, UT without the space, nope.

I have neighbors that have their vehicles outside with their garage full of exercise equipment, etc. I don't get it.

Here is the one I used before buying: https://fordauthority.com/2021/06/here-are-all-the-2022-ford-f-150-lightning-specs/

I hope it fits in your garage. I found the dimensions online and built a wood frame for the length and width to test it in my garage. I am about a foot short, but I bought it anyways and park in the driveway.
A foot I could accept.. I'm 1 inch short even after cutting into the wall to fit the bumper (no I actually didn't do that but measured what I would get in hope I could squeeze it in)..
