There is a terrible blind spot on the KK that requires you to crane your neck in the rear view mirror, outside and a quick look over left shoulder through left side back door glass when changing lanes on Interstate. I think I'm going to get some of those little round mirrors for the exterior mirrors. I drive upright, not straight up but I'm not a leaner either, just that C-Pillar is to wide, wasn't a problem I had on the KJ, other than that I love my KK!! :D

I think I'll adjust my mirrors outward more see if this helps.

That's the trick. Problem is my wife is shorter and moves the mirrors in.

you could do that, and then use your rear view mirror all of the other times...

The little round blind spot mirrors work great. They have ones that are adjustable. You stick them on and then you can turn them to exactly the right angle. Wallymart sells them and they are only 2 or 3 dollars for 2 of them. They let you see the curb when you are parallel parking also.

I noticed the awful blind spot on my test drive. I wasn't sure if it was all SUVs or just those. Its been too long since I had my KJ so I really didn't remember.

If you think the kk is bad, just ride in a FJ...

I think the stick-on "blind spot" mirrors should be standard equipment on all vehicles. They're the first thing I put on. :wink:
