Thanks everyone 
This is a dream garage for me. I'll still have lots to do on the inside to make it into a real "shop" someday 
Yeah I can't believe the price of sheetrock now, and we complain about how gas has gone up
Len I have 7 acres to play with
Dave, its great to see you chiming in
Richard, my wife and I would have loved to do an upstairs just couldn't swing it
Looks like you'll have yourself a real nice garage soon too 
Sandiego, sold

Very NICE. When will the heat and air conditioning be done. The only bad thing about a nice garage is that it gets filled up quickly and then an expansion is needed.

I suggest anyone looking into building a "Garage Mahal" look into "scissor-truss" roof system. It allows high ceiling heights at the same costs as conventional roof systems.

Very nice. I hope to put one in my backyard someday. With your truss system, do you have any attic space? Some additional storage is what I need also.

I like the idea of half sissor and half conventional...Gotta get rid of these Costo garages...
