    Hahahaha!! Dude!! The doors sound tiny??? :rofl::rofl::rofl: Does it, for some reason, hint about the size of your “member” because they don’t have a big, manly, over sound deadened BMW Door?

    as far as the mirrors are concerned, learn how to adjust them correctly. I don’t have a blind spot at all. Just remember, none of the mirrors should overlap what you see behind you. Eliminates blind spots. People don’t usually do it correctly because they want to see the side of the vehicle for some reason. The paint is pretty, but you don’t need to see it

    Oddly enough, that's probably my least favorite aspect of the truck. Appearance-wise, IMO, it's "Mehh" at best. It's definitely better looking than the new Ranger, but I don't think it's a big winner from an aesthetics perspective.

    I actually love the look of my Taco.

    And I love the look of the new Ranger (only because I love my Escape and it is damn near identical)

    mine are basically set to the lanes beside me. When they fall out of that, they are coming into the rear view mirror. I’ve done it for years and hasn’t failed me yet

    The side of my vehicle is visible for point of reference purposes. It doesn't take up the mirror, but is enough so that I can know where the side is in any of my normal driving positions. The current truck has blind spot monitoring and more visibility than my last truck which had no blind spot monitoring and a giant topper with dark tint (so I forget I even have blind spot monitoring on the current truck). As long as you follow your point of references like you should be doing, there's no issues.

    LOL you put the "POS" in your description... not his fault you don't know how to fill out a form...

    Seriously sounds like you have some major buyer's regret, sell it to Carvana or something and take the loss. You'll clearly hate this thing forever if such small issues are bothering you. Did your wife make you buy it or something?

    Hope it works out for you.

    Sitting up straight and not leaning, you will not see the side of your vehicle. Try it. It’ll take you a little to get used to, but you shouldn’t have a blind spot
