Three weeks into FJ ownership and I'm not experiencing all of these so-called problems with visibility I keep reading in the reviews. Yes the C-pillars are large, but with proper use of side mirrors you can negate the disadvatage from the rear corners. In case someone needs a tip; move your side mirrors out where you can barely see the side of the vehicle and you will be just fine. In fact you will almost be able to see something as small as a Yaris beside you on the highway. The extra height really helps add more side visibility than you can get in a car lower to the ground. This is coming from someone who's driven mostly cars for the past 15 years. The visibility "problems" are few and far between for me.

I think you will find just being very aware of whats around you and being aware of the blind spots will prevent alot of mishaps.

I use the little stickem mirrors inside the mirrors. I also installed a wireless cam on the rear right side bumper that I can see that little compact in my right rear side blindspot.

Do not make sudden lane changes to the right !!! You will most certainly crash somebody over time.

I've been lucky several times to avoid a collision, Believe me you I have recieved the Middle Finger more than once

Just try like heck to be aware of whats around you at all times, It seems like people these days have a death wish and are looking for a Compensation Ticket.

If your lifted like me the risk is tripled!!!!
