So i dont have a passenger side mirror on the blue truck. and with weaving in and out of traffic i know its only a matter of time before that will create an issue. so i picked up a "270mm wide angle convex" clip on rear view mirror. its taken sometime to get used to but omg you can see everything now. i can see all three lanes of traffic (one on drivers side, lane i'm in, and passenger side) and its totally worth the 30 bucks. the only down side is taht you cannot adjust it for ngiht time driving. but becuse of the convex shape the lights arent as bright.




just thought i'd share.

 

I have one of those on my Volvo wagon, and it does give a good wide view behind, but I do find that it messes a bit with my depth perception when I'm backing up. I'm getting used to it, but I've had a couple of close calls.

I would look into getting yourself the passenger side mirror, anyway. That much better view behind (and I hate driving without one, personally!)

 

I've found that it's helpfull to use one of those bad boys. I have one from RAZO that works in a similar fashion. When I lifted my Runner I got a nasty blind spot by the pass 3rd window(lil cars would like to hide there) so I got one of those round spot mirrors to place on the side views, saved me a couple of times.

 

I've got one of those clip-on ones...I like it because it gives you views of EVERYTHING. It also adds to a more social feel inside the rig when you have passengers front and rear...easier to see facial expressions etc. when communicating. Every passenger as well as the driver can see one another.

I do get razzed though...it looks like it belongs in a 4 door sedan driven by a little blue haired lady.

 

Yep, agree 100% with the "social feel".

 

yep tofer I had the same issue with my pickup. But I went the HUGE truck mirrors route....
