Haha. Yeah i don’t think it will work to be honest. Maybe I should stick with the badlands or OBX to shed 3” of width. The 7” of extra width over my current car is crushing. My wife also going to have a small panic attack backing this out of the driveway to get to her own car. Especially since our house is on a busy double yellow road.

Rock sliders can also double as mower bumpers!

Honestly. I thought about that. Rock sliders and unpainted flares are way safer and less limiting than an OBX with protruding sidesteps and painted dark AMB flares

Is parking in the back yard possible? You have the gates to back yard. Btw your home is beautiful

Just trim your hedges and you will be just fine. Also maybe do your own lawncare till you get a few miles on so you dont yell at your poor gardener for whacking it!

Here’s the latest photo I have when we replaced a tree. You could see where the Subaru stands and the two ‘hallways’ on either side for mowers to get through around to the back of the house. There’s not enough room to access backyard on left side of house given landscaping and trees etc

If money was no object, you could put in a horseshoe drive way. You would lose part of the front lawn, but would have more room for your vehicles.

We had a really tight driveway that wrapped around to a garage that was impossible to get to. We had no option but to remove it since we couldnt rebuild it else where. We are historically zoned and could not rebuild at top of driveway. Actually, I was going to keep it and renovate to a farmhouse/storage building to buy a C2 vette to drool over. But decided to tear it down and have a truck/wrangler (now a bronco) as the fun car since it doesn’t need to be babied with coverage.

Can’t. Historical zoned on the prominent street in town. 20 neighbors would show up to historical committee to overturn.

So I have a 1930s house that had a very narrow driveway. A couple years ago we maxed out the width as much as possibly. Not sure if the width of the Sasquatch will fit. What do you think?

We have a single file two car setup on the side of the house. The most important thing is we need to pull in and back out straight with enough room for strollers to maneuver through as well as gardeners with lawnmowers. Same with guys taking out trash. This is my only route to get access to the backyard.

My Subaru is 72” wide. And we have a just enough comfortable fit on either side. The gardeners have only nicked the side once in three years. However I was never planning on putting a Sasquatch in the driveway at 79.3”, 7” wider losing 3.5” each side.

What do you guys think? Is this going to get beaten to hell by lawnmowers and strollers?

It looks like you’ll gain about 3’, if you get rid of all those overgrown green weeds on the right side of the driveway. That’s what I would do.

I have no help to add, but your layout reminds me of my aunt's house in philly

edit- as well as gardeners with lawnmowers. Same with guys taking out trash

also if you take care of your own house you'll be fine

You may need to consider this for your off road needs:

I would be more worried one of the kids fall down that lightwell.
If that was my driveway i would clear both sides of it from curb and either pave or concrete a path on both sides ,maybe even pavers .
F the lawn guys the kids are going to scratch the bronc up when they start riding bikes.
The one thing that is certian is your going to put kids in car often why make it an ordeal every day.

For Sasquatch I think the unpainted plastic flares count for that 3 inches on each side. You will be fine.

We put a custom grate in the light well. I agree the sas Bronco isn’t very kid friendly in terms of width and height
