I feel as though there's nearly a century of trial and error behind the now near-perfect mirror hanging from my windshield. If the engineers had felt the need for a bigger mirror, they would put a bigger mirror in my car. Instead, they put a mirror in the car that allows me to see out of my entire rear window and maintain visibility through the windshield and as 95celicaST just said, I also still have the use of my sun visors. There's no reason in the world why I should see out of my rear window and then see my whole back seat, my whole forehead, my passenger's forehead, etc. Practicality is key. I'm sure people with Helluflushed cars can't figure out why other people don't like it.
