It's not up to some the ones on here, but It's closes I'll get without adding to the house, which is hopeful in a few years. Those are our two nicest vehicles of the 6 that will fit. Here's two more trucks, I keep in a nearby shed.

You got the "sweet" part correct. The first part is a play on our last name...wright, so it says "right sweet," which is the way my wife describes her car.

Update time thanks to some great ideas, a lot of overtime $$ to pay for it, and the kindness of a buddy for the top box. I'd gave him my old rider John Deere at the start of the summer for a loaner until he killed it or found one he wanted. It's his now since he gave me the top box[a Blue Point from his shop days].

Garage looks great. Picture posting needs help though. Can you go back and put a space between each picture that you posted? It will line the pictures up vertically instead of horizontally.

That better? Not great at the picture posting stuff. The top pics are pretty old and most of that oil is in the diesel. It was on sale right after I did an oil change, but couldn't pass it up.

There ya go fixed it so you dont have to scroll across the page to see the pics . Little hint for future picture loading . Hit enter once or twice between images and they will go straight down like mine instead of across the page .Nice collection of Ford stuff I'm a Ford guy myself :D.

They go straight down on my screen, but thanks for the heads up. I'm better at cars and trucks than computers. If it wasn't for technology in cameras, those would look like **** too.

Thanks for the compliments, I've tried to use what I've learned here and make the most use of space vs the vehicles still fitting inside. The floor is **** thanks to me spilling oil, brake dust, paint, and other junk. I need to do something with it, but not sure which direction. I'm not for the floor coating as it make it slick when wet, the Race Deck stuff is awful pricey for me, which leaves it down to peel and stick tile or some of that ceramic tile stuff. My problem is I rarely use it as a work place, but I do use it. The previous owner let his daughters use it for a play room, never parked in it once, apparently. I had to gut some shelving and a so called work bench before we could park in it.I wish I had picks of before we started this place. I just bought it on Friday evening, went and bought $450 worth of paint and supplies and declared war. I spent two weeks trying to get the it painted, **** fixed, and just ****** out stuff they half way did.

Nit2wn take a look at VCT tile it is a little cheaper than ceramic and better than peel and stick . Theres quite a few posts about it in the flooring section and with a little effort you can keep it looking good fairly easy . That is most likely what I will end up with on my floor eventually as my garage is a working garage " welding ,grinding , ect. " .

That's what I was trying to think of, thanks. I will keep it in mind, just have to find an installer. I have a guy we go to church with that does home construction, but I've been waiting for 2 months for him to install a new front door and storm door. I'm kinda of sick of waiting to be honest.

An installer dude we are going to pull your man card :D. VCT is really really easy to do . Take a look at the thread up in the flooring section .

If it's something to do with cosmetics, grout, or keeping things just square, I need to usually farm it out or get some help. I could probably put the door in, but it has the trim and beautification aspect, which means I'll screw up the finish somehow. I know my strong points, cosmetics isn't one of them. I'd rather spend the weekend at work on ot and pay someone that can do a better job, or let me help them as I pay them where I can. I pick and choose my battles, preferring to win or at least break even.
