JR,
I have to side with your wife on this one. All my rear view mirrors, in
whatever I drive, are adjusted so that part of the vehicle I am in shows in
the mirror. I need to know where the traffic in my mirror is in relationship
to the vehicle I am driving. Maybe it's just me, but I feel a little more
confident in my decision making when the mirrors are adjusted that way.
