Hang a ping pong ball from the ceiling on a string so that it touches the windshield at the right spot when you’re parking.
You can use the glow in the dark ping pongs. Actually cool for when your heading home. Turn on garage lights via wifi and before you open garage, turn off lights. It’s funny as hell seeing the little floating ball?? OMG ! Look dad.. it’s an orb.. lol. Sorry kids, it’s just a long pong ball?? it’s not an episode with some guy name Zach.

Dont modern cars have ultrasonic sensors,
I'm surprised this is still a problem, we should be able to just go to the screen, find "parking proximity" where the front and back cameras show what they see along with a visual and audio readout of how far the wall is.

That’s a good idea. Thanks
An option we use in our garage is a laser parking light. It is a motion activated red laser that you set and adjust so you can see it on your dash for example (if you park heading into garage). Then, based on your setting, you stop when the laser light is pointing exactly where you want it. We have the dual laser lights for a dual garage. Relatively inexpensive and easy to set. You won't trip on it, or hit your head on it. But it does activate for a few mins when you walk into the garage.

Consider getting a pair of these parking curbs for the back of your garage. Just measure out a few inches of clearance from the back garage wall and mount the parking curb at the appropriate location behind (or in front of) your tires, depending on which way your Cybertruck will be facing. This looks far better than the old tennis ball hanging on a string method, and it may help keep you from driving your truck through the back wall of the garage if any Tesla auto-park feature fails.

Good idea but also with cyber truck you can look through the rear camera and once the back end passes the garage door just stop

I thought lasers were only for sharks

I guess I’m one of the lucky ones. My garage is 276. My F150 xlt with 8’ bed has plenty of room and the CT isn’t quite as long . I’ll actually be able to walk all around with the Cyber in the garage. ??
