Has anyone had any issues so far? Parking decks stress me out. I hit the antenna in a few spots, but I been okay. Are most decks built to handle the Raptor?

Not with the Raptor but needed to get out of my Bronco and make sure it wouldn't hit the lower beams. I am still nervous though.

I go through that anxiety at work with my BadLands on 37"s Clearnace is 7ft, my antenna hits everything that hangs down to that 7ft, but that's all... Still pretty stressful, I generally get in early enough to get a space on the first floor (9ft) though..
I reinstalled my factory antenna for this exact reason.

Great reason to keep the stock antenna!
Google says a Tahoe/Suburban is 76 inches tall while a Raptor is 78. Figure that means you guys are fine in 99% of garages but I'd still take it slow!!

Exactly why I kept my factory antenna instead of a stubby (no Raptor here....OBX). But I like the re-assurance of the antenna hitting first to alert me of any low clearance issues. For new parking garages, code is 7'-2" clearance for non-van accesible areas.
My 7' garage door frames are 83.5 clearance. Its going to be a lot closer putting a rack on my Braptor going to have to do some homework.
I have multiple no-go's here in So Cal with my 4Runner with RTT. IIRC it is 8'1". I pasted a little sticker in the spot where oil change ones often go to remind me. Then no getting out and estimating. I think you would have to search pretty hard to find a public parking garage that won't accomodate a Braptor.
