    I wouldn't even bother explaining yourself to these kids. They're lost and too far gone.

    Drove 400 miles home with out my passenger wide view round mirror after having it ripped off. Halfway through the trip I took the one off the nose and mounted it by the door.

    Couldn't get used to not having it , even though I check both before coming over, just missed it in the tight turns.

    Yeah, but to lose that one, without losing the whole passenger side setup is a pretty precision shot.

    I had someone take my whole passenger set up off in one shot. Then he just kept it moving. I couldn’t follow him because I literally couldn’t see anything to my right. Luckily I was only a mile from the yard, and it was only 1 LEFT turn, so I just proceeded to the shop. It could’ve been really ugly.

    Yea I had my left side convex get hit but I've still got the extendable ones my truck had on it when I got it so it keeps them away from the hole mirror setup.

    That's right, yo momma expelled you from her uterus, and you immediately knew everything there is life.....

    I ain't no kid or boy, so there's that! If making assumptions or cryptic innuendos makes you feel more like a man, more power to you bro.

    Some of us can talk, debate, and discuss topics without "Going There" but unfortunately some can't.

    Anyways Good day sir
     
    Bob Dobalina and Blackshack46 Thank this.

    I called Hood mirrors Luxury Mirrors. They're nice to have, it's easier to see without turning your head, but back in the day most trucks didn't have them.

    What would you do if you were driving a cabover or an old snub nose? Google it if you don't know what snub nose is.

    Those trucks have no hood to put the mirrors on...
