"Bliss is no rearview mirror." Right. Like, if it's really bad, you're going to hear screeching tires anyway. Or there's just going to be that inevitable impact, which I would prefer NOT to know is coming. Why spoil your own death?

And this is all assuming there's no car, or crosswalk children, in front of you to run over in escapist panic. For what?

It's a bad deal.

I sometimes turn the mirror down at night, way off some direction, and notice I'm happier the next few days. Looking in there is a bad thing.
And I always check em blindspots with my HEAD, not the middle mirror. Side mirrors are a different story. I respect those.

jp -- <<Bliss is no rearview mirror.>>

But then how ya gonna know what's about to get ya? I like to know what's creepin' up on my tailpipe. And BTW my best friend in high school had a blue Fury III convertible. Way cool, and fast. But my favorite was a '66 Malibu SS convertible with a 350 4-speed, a real mover.
