I went to menards estimator for garage and pole barn.
I was surprised there is little difference in material costs.
I'm looking at a building a pole 30x48x10, 35 year shingles, Trusses 2 ft, 1 ft eves one 16x8 overhead, and one 36 inch door.
Well menards pole barn estimator wouldn't allow me to have eves, trusses on 2 ft. So I used column poles and spaced trusses on 4 ft with vapor barrier, metal roof.
Then I went to Menards garage estimator, put metal siding on garage package and one row of block.
I was surprised the cost of materials were almost the same.
So what's the big advantage of a pole barn instead of a garage the same size? Is the labor cost for a stick built garage that much more? < I built a new house around my old house, doubled the size of house and added a 2 car garage. Totally rebuilt my house. So if I were younger it wouldn't be that hard to build a garage.
Please try using a cost estimator and see how much difference you find in the cost of a pole barn vs garage.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
