Vision Question??

so ive been thinking about this alot lately.....once i lift my truck....im wondering how my vision will change. like from the front window while driving....looking in my mirrors.....i mean how do you guys (allrsdup, josiah...other guys with Rize kits and 37's) see when backing up....isnt your rear view mirror useless now?

im thinking about getting a rear view camera off ebay.

I would recommend it! I almost ran over my ten y/o brother because he was walking along the side of my truck as I was backing up (dumbass). I am also going to get the little convex mirrors that go on the side mirrors. Right now I have mine tilted down because I can't see the little ricers next to me on the highway.

well to be honest i dont have a problem, i have the backup sensors so that helps. just have to adjust your side mirrors down a little no problem to me.

the first time you get in it, it will be weird. But you adjust and get used to it..

going down the road your vision will be improved.. You sit atop of traffic and look over everyone in front of you.

Your side mirrors have to be angled down a slight bit but like i said you adjust to it. and it wont bother you at all..

If your at a red light and a car come up close to you they can hide behind you. Haha. I dont know how many times it looks like no one is behind me because they are too close..

Anyways, Dont worry about it. It will be better if anything

So, stop before they disappear, maybe?

Of course close quarters driving is going to get more difficult. You'll have decreased visibilty, and increased turning radius.
