Question Tight squeeze

Need help in finding the total width of a Vegas/axis 24.1 or a 22QB class C
-currently on a Majestic 19g E350 and I only have about 3 -4 inches on either side including the awning to get in my parking space-does anybody know the total width including the awning and with mirrors folded in on these units ? Want to purchase one of these units but parking is a big consideration if it will fit.
Thanks

Wall-to-wall I have 107 inches my 19g spec says 91 inches -Vegas/Axis spec is 94 inches and 101 on the e450 class c -i’m pretty sure that the E4 50 class he will not fit any help would be much appreciated thanks

What rig is that ? Folding in the mirrors on my class C is inside the width of the body and doesn’t add to the size just the awning does
Thanks

The Vegas/Axis mirrors on my rig do not fold and are the widest point on the rig looking from the rear of the coach.
The mirrors extend beyond the slide topper and awning.
The rear body side to side is 96”
So total width with the mirrors is another 4-5” on each side = 106” (?)

looks like if your tip it over, it will slide right in.

In this case, I'm not sure those mirrors won't fold/rotate.
There's a cover over a bolt headi in the bottom.
I would close them in for a long term parking.
I wouldn't want to do it often.

Thanks that’s better than removing them if I can’t shoehorn it in there
I’m sure they have to come off somehow
I’m guessing that a E4 50 class c 101 inches won’t fit with an awning
My E350 is 91 not including the awning
Looks like it’s going to be a access/Vegas the only rig bigger that will fit
Thanks

I've got 110" at narrowest point. Luckily my driver mirror overhangs the wall. We got our 2018 Axis 25.3 specifically because it would fit. So much easier parking compared to backing in our 28' trailer.Click image for larger version

I have to ask - How the devil do you get in and out once parked? I would need more than Bob's Pam spray to slide out with 3 to 4 inches - even 6 to 8 inches of clearance.

The other criteria for the Axis was that the hinge for the door had to be within 20' of the rear. That way the last 20' sticks out in front of the garage and we can get in.Click image for larger version

Looks to be about 106" on my rig. Hard to measure. I've got 127" stucco to fence post and it's 6" from fence post and 15" from the stucco. Could be off an inch or so because of the angle of the rig.

Thor Vegas side mirrors/width

I have a 2016 Vegas 25.2. I'm fairly certain all Vegas and Axis are the same width. My mirrors DO fold to stow. My total width side to side to the end of each mirror (widest part of the RV) is 103".

The mirrors were very hard to rotate at first, but the do fold in/out (the same was true with the grey/black tank pipe; it took a lot of silicone lubricant and Armstrong rotation pullers/pushers to get the pipe to rotate down for dumping and up for travel)(and watch out for the exposed sheet metal screws under the rig. Getting a cut while dumping the tanks isn't ideal).
