LETTER: Garages in Surrey too small for many vehicles

The Editor,

Re: "Cars, not junk, belong in garages," the Now letters, Feb. 18.

We recently moved to the Hillcrest area from Newton. While house hunting, I wondered why all the cars were in driveways and not in garages. I couldn't wait to have a two-car garage - no more scraping my windows!

We did buy a two-car garage house and much to my dismay, it's turns out that neither of our cars fit in the garage! I have a regular sized minivan and my husband has a pickup truck. Both our vehicles are too long to fit. Height is not an issue, just the length. While meeting all our new neighbours, turns out they have the same problem with their minivans, crossovers and trucks. They just don't fit. I feel that this is another issue between the developers and the city.
