How big are car ports and garages on new cookie cutter homes?

Seems like they are smaller than 20'x20' now.

Not big enough for an accord and Camry to fit comfortably.

Big enough to be an eyesore on the front of the house.

Small enough for a real man to park his dually on the front yard.

Cookie cutter homes don't have car ports.

Front load garages are a pox on American society.
So I've learned.

Unwritten social rules are coming fast and furious. Hard to keep up these days.

Built new in 2013. My garage fits my 4 Runner, her Optima, a dorm fridge on one side, a Yeti on my side, and room to open any door on either side of either car. Very pleased.

Couldn't fit a full size truck and suv in one

By far the most practical set-up.

Real ballers have an arched car port and a 4 car garage

Did you seal/paint the floor?

I hate our garage. Right at the front of the house and barely fits our two vehicles. My husbands truck has to nearly touch the wall to be able to close the garage. He had to test drive it home just to make sure it would fit before he bought it. As you can expect, he has hit the wall more than once trying to get close enough so that has to be repaired before we ever sell. More than anything I hate how garages in cookie cutter neighborhoods are all you see. Who thought this was a great idea? It is just a neighborhood full of garages and people live in little houses hidden behind them.

Have your house built with your garage like the train cars they used to ship Vegas in- so you can store your vehicle up and down:

Ahh, the Vega.
You could hear that car rust.

You don't think front facing garages look like shite?
I guess TVs over fireplaces and microwaves over ranges are fine, too?

I fit an Accord, minivan, 2 work desks, 1 mobile work bench, a jointer, 5 bicycles, a bike trailer, jogging stroller, and a stack of raw lumber in mine with room to spare for other random tools and such and still have plenty of room to walk around.
I'll take my 80s ranch style over the newer cookie cutter type houses every day.
