If the materials were on site, a group of capable friends could have a stick built structure standing covered in felt or tarp in a couple of weekends at the cost of pizza and beer/soda...

I could certainly offer a couple of Saturdays and I like rough framing.

Remember, it is a garage/shop and doesn't need to be perfect like you would want a house to be.  (that's my $0.02 opinion)
kind of what I thought, needs to last but doesn't need to be perfect like you said

also thought about this and was hoping for it, I really want to do a lot of the work myself/with a little help from friends
I like the satisfaction along with the cost savings.   8) :D

don't forget about assessment...
an additional structure will force an assessment in Brighton..

factor your additional tax amount into the plan..

i built mine.    Most of the time I just needed one helper.

Dont be shy to look outside of the greater Rochester area.    I got my materials from a place in PA.   And they delivered.

Was less than half the cost of any place local and was engineered with better materials.

a couple of the garage kits I've found are in Ohio, at least one of them will not deliver outside of Ohio...

I'm trying to look everywhere and anywhere

Playing catch up here.

I can check with 84 lumber and santelli lumber. Both companies are big into garage kits.

Pole construction vs slab on grade really depends on what you want in the end.

Pole building @ 24 x 24 can be erected and  closed in in one day with a capable crew. Leave the gravel floor until time or budget allows to pour a concrete slab.

Pole construction and steel siding and roof will most likely be more expensive overall.

Get a price from troy for the slab and then, a small group of us could bang out a garage of this size in a saturday. Roof it on sunday. Siding on monday

Above is the quote from 84 Lumber.
It contains 2 seperate buildings so don't let the total at the bottom scare you.
Option one is 20x24 8ft ceiling
1- 7x16 overhead door
1- 3/0×6/8 steel man door
1 window

Option two is 24x24 8ft ceiling
2-9x7 overhead doors
1- 3/0×6/8 steel man door
1 window

Both quotes include 25 asphalt shingle roof, vinyl siding and all the necessary trim etc.

I would personally upgrade the exterior trim boards to PVC around the garage door but that is a topic for a later date.
I can confirm more items if you need.
Hope this helps.

Items to consider...
Is an 8ft tall ceiling high enough?
7ft tall garage door tall enough?
Insulated overhead door?

Erik thanks for all that info..
its close to what they have listed on their website for garages
I'll probably look again and talk to you about them
agreed on items to consider, i also have to make sure it kind of fits in or blends in...

glad its 2 quotes... almost fell over... haha

my jeep fits through a standard 7' door, i could find rollers if i really need at some point...
probably will never get a lift so 8' ceilings will probably be fine
i was planning on a insulated garage door (leaning toward 16x7 door)(could always insulate it later..)

I have requested more info from a couple of companies

I have already talked to Troy about the slab

Since you're in NY and plan to work on vehicles in the garage - look into radiant heated floors.
