Default OK quick Survey (I hate surveys!) Question

How many people think that the side view mirrors should be more forward...
Well at least for me they should be closer to the roof/windshield column.

Never even thought about it - seem perfectly fine where they are.

IMO, they're fine where they are.
I've never had any problems with them.

i think they look great exactly where they are. They could have mounted them on the front roof pillars, but they might have looked a bit high.

I have always thought they should move up to the triangle area at the base of the A pillar.

I think they should be removed completely and replaced with cameras in the fender coves.
