Angle of Mirror slice bugs me!

[Squatch]

So, the angle of the A pillar and the Slice off the passenger side mirror aren't the same. That bugs me.

I know, probably got more things I could complain about. BUT...

I think the bigger concern is that both of your doors appear to be on one side of your vehicle.

I read in another post about this that it's a regulation that no part of the mirror can be blocked, so they just removed it.

That would actually make sense in an ok I'll show these regulators sort of way.

Why does the leather back seats get cup holders but the MGV seats don’t? The world may never know.

Obviously it’s so you are aware that you’re looking at your passenger side mirror. If they were symmetrical then you could get confused.

9:10 talks about this a bit.

I hope nobody tells this guy about the off-center text on the passenger mirror. Then he will REALLY be annoyed!

Damnit, why did you do this to me?!

Is that a view of the right side mirror from the driver's seat? If so, your right mirror is not adjusted for optimal awareness of blind spot.
What I do is adjust them in a parking lot, next to a car to the right and left of me. I'll position my car until the cars are in my blind spot, and then adjust the mirrors so I can see them properly in the mirrors. That way I know the mirror is covering my blind spot for safety.

There's no need to see the the side of your own vehicle, so if I see the side of my own car, I know I've adjusted the mirrors too far inward.

Doesn't the fuel door have the same shape?

It is definitely a head scratcher on why it is like that but for me the thing that instantly sets me off on a "WTF Ford?" tangent is the rear hatch design on the factory soft top.

I like to pretend the engineers had a weird sense of humor in designing these things rather than they were just being plain stupid.

I've been driving my Bronco for 9 months. Last weekend I took my kid off-roading and let him sit in the front passenger seat for the first time.

Him: "Hey Dad..why is the mirror on my side different than yours?"

Me: "well what do you know..I never noticed that"
