I've had no problem at high speed with car's finding the line, AutoX wasn't a problem. Plowing is not a issue. At the range I will be off 1/4 left at 100yds. That is only a adjustment. What took me away from bikes was in my case it is the left eye, so to change lanes or entering from the right caused you to turn a bit to the left to catch the mirror. Too many times I'd look to the left then back ahead and be in the sh.t or damn close to it. Then a rock was tossed up and cracked the right lens of the poly carb glasses, that was it. I love my german sheperd's, but not on a harness.

Now, the problem with the new truck is that I have a one car garage and won't even attempt to pull the truck into it. I may be able to get it in but would certainly play heck getting it back out. :-)

I just bought my new truck and I have been searching for "In channel" side window deflectors but have not had luck. Dodge sells the "stick on" or "tapped" kind instead.
Anyone had any luck finding some for your's? I am aware of the back 2 windows being the tape on kind. It is the front two that worry me the most. I don't have any depth perception so I need the side mirrors to not be blocked by the kind that go all the way down the window.
Thank you so much for your help.
