Default Re: Prius visibility

Some tall folks have mentioned having more degrees of freedom in moving the mirror in the NHW20 (current) model. But I've never been really happy with the rear view of our Camry, Echo and Prius. I've had vehicles with better overlap of the outside and rear view mirrors and it could be improved.

When my wife and I change drivers, we both go through considerable 'adjusting' to get the mirrors to work right for us. With a broader viewing angle, the problem would be greatly reduced. I understand there may be aftermarket mirrors that solve the problem.
