Actually using your garage AS a garage.

[slow]

Another input from Florida, I've yet to see an attached 2-car garage here that can actually hold two full size cars and be useful for anything else. Our last fancy house in a nice neighborhood would only fit my full size four door truck if the garage was completely empty, with less than 6" clearance front and back. Since I have a small toolbox and a stand-up freezer it was too short. Rolling my wife's Durango in with the toolbox and freezer gave her less than 6" clearance, front to back. And if per chance we wanted to empty the garage and put both vehicles in, you'd be climbing out the windows because there wasn't space to open the door enough to get out.

All that being said, there's HOA's all throughout this area that would absolutely embrace the "you're going to use your property the way we thing it should be used" mindset. That was one of the many reasons we ditched the fancy neighborhood and bought land!

Well said, my "3 car" garage is 26 feet wide, holds 2 cars and stuff, but it is so tight. My HOA states you should use the garage for at least 1 vehicle, so most have 1 car in the garage, a few have 2 or 3 but small cars are different than Tahoe's and such.
