I never break the speed limit.

At least until I get across the cross walk.

To answer your question, nope the center mounted mirror is probably worse than the dash mounted one - never tried dash mounted, but our center one was useless.

we removed our center rod mounted mirror and replaced with one that fits into the slots in the windscreen (ala DWC version) - miles better, very stable, hardly any woble/vibration at all

Redmt,
Why are you are so quick to suuush me?
I didn’t call him a “Jerk” I didn’t say he was lying, I didn’t say we should take his Cobra away because his mamby-pamby personality makes him unworthy.
However, tcrist had no problem publicly calling out and condemning CB when the LEO on scene felt it wasn’t necessary and to that I disagree.
Loud and fast and fun is the point of a Cobra. Clearly, he doesn’t like loud (Moms ears are sensitive), he doesn’t like fast and attacks those that have fun.
I call it what it is. This is an enthusiast forum, why post if you’re not going to be enthusiastic? Maybe he should be here:
http://priuschat.com/forum/

“Its not personal, its business….”

John,
I am sorry I couldn’t be there for Scott’s funeral. I respected both him and his dad. I am proud to have known them, albeit for a short time.


Jason

Everyone here is entitled to an opinion.
...no matter how right or wrong, smart or dumb.

Let's have a little less criticism on the other guy's opinion.

Thanks.

I never break it either. But I might bend the heck out of it once and a while.

Actually,the Prius doesn't make sense for me due to the heavy, expensive battery. My smart (yes the s is lower case) makes much more sense and I love it. 52 MPG on the highway, replaceable body panels, and a joy to park. It complements my 289 slabside and 410 hp Chevy 2 just fine.

Got to have a rear view. I stopped to turn into my driveway last week and saw the gril behind me coming up way to fast. She hit the brakes hard and got rear ended so hard that she got thrown towards me. Luckily I saw the whole thing happen and turned off quickly as she got thrown by me. Missed me by inches.

On the side note. Is there one person with a cobra that hasnt gone over the speed limit at some point??

At some point everytime I drive it. Look, one of the best ways to avoid accidents is to go with the flow. The flow around here is almost always over the speed limit.
