Those mirrors are a great idea! I think I like it better than the old tennis ball on a string trick.

And then you get to a point where you add some electrical assistance.

Tidy spaces are nice, driving our cars is much nicer...
But that's why I redid my garage and made it nice and organized. I like to spend time in the garage, and my sleek organized garage is so much nicer than the cluttered mess it was previously. I can move around the vehicles, I have a clean workspace and with the slotted RaceDeck, the floor stays perfectly clean, even if my cars are coming in and out. I didn't do a garagemahal (yet), but I made it nice enough that it's a pleasant place to be. And decent cabinets make life soooo much easier. I spent 50 years with a crappy garage and now 1 year with a nice one. I much prefer the nice one.

Another Sad garage to add to the collection...... Too challenging to get approval for a shed for my lot. Corner lot with a creek running behind it. Too many set back rules from roads, lot lines, and creek, so because of that, all of the crap like riding mower, snow blower, portable emergency generator, power washer, rakes, shovels, etc. have to live in the garage. Important point is that most of it lurks around my wife's Lexus...not my Targa.
