Perfect fit!

We picked up a 2015 X213 last weekend. One of the reasons we picked it is because it would fit on the driveway. We made the assumption that we wouldn't be able to open the slide which was fine with us. Got it home and realized that if we open the garage door, the slide can open! So, if we need it open, we are able to do so. Pretty cool!

Wow, that is even closer then mine is to the house. Everytime i back my x213 up to the house, my wife stops me like a foot short, I have to tell her no closer. She gets so nervous. I really wish my driveway was not angled, i would love to be able to open it up like you there.

Oh I was nervous with my husband backing up! I'd yell STOP! And he'd get out and tell me, don't stop me until I'm "this" (hand motions) close. LOL our driveway is angled too, probably not as much as yours though. I was worried we'd hit the garage eave since the trailer was angling towards it. But getting up on a ladder and we've got probably 10" but looks so close when you're on the ground! But ya, he got close enough to get the bumper inset right where the garage door is inset.

Now to replicate it again...

That looks more like "docking" than parking.

I think mine would clear the garage door too....I have a straight driveway so backing up to it is not a problem. I also use a power dolly to move it into my side yard that I cannot use my truck due to a township owned tree. My the way, nice rig!
