The blind spot in them is TERRIBLE!!! It will likely lead to the senseless deaths of thousands of innocent children.

Seriously, I know it is a stereotype but I wouldn't let my wife/girlfriend/Mom drive one because I am confident they would crash into something backing up or changing lanes.

I am used to driving big rock trucks, one tons, straight trucks and biggish dumps. The complete lack of visibility to the rear in the FJ doesn't even compare.

The official party line is that you need a spotter to drive it off road. You will likely need a spotter on road too.
