Ganador Mirrors Installed
Swapped out my truck mirrors for something a little more size-appropriate. The Ganadors retain the stock electronic controls, but with the smaller mirror, I've noticed a small reduction in Field of View. The range of motion also seems to be a bit limited (for example, I cannot tuck the right side mirror in enough to see the side of the car...at least not without craning my neck).
Overall, I like the look. I think it's an improvement and I'm glad I did it.
And from this morning (a bit gloomier weather) from above:

I get that. (I'm 40, Sonny. I've got a couple days behind the wheel )
I guess I should have clarified that when I'm backing out of my garage, I have about 8" clearance on each side. I NEED to see the side of my car in THAT scenario. With the OEM mirrors, there is enough range to easily adjust them to where I need them. With the Ganadors, that option isn't there.
Make sense?

Nah...it's really no biggie. Just means I gotta stretch a bit more when I'm back up. Once I'm driving, there's enough range to point the mirror where it belongs--the blind spot.
I have to admit, my first reaction to the mirrors was that they're too small (the hippo analogy is great). After feeling like Goldilocks for a couple days, they've really "settled in" to my eyes...they look...perfect.
