I drive with my side mirrors and my rear will eventually be blocked with a spare tire and a cargo cage that's why I'm not worried about the blind spot. You could just put one on the driverside if your that worried about it though.

x2 on this... mirrors work great... The only windows I really look out are the front two, the windshield (obviously), and the rear window... but keeping it to the driver's side might be a good idea just in case.

Threw a gatorback belt on to shut the startup squeaking up. Worked well

Yea, for those worried. The most I'll get to drive mine is 5 miles each way to and from work. Go in at 730am and get home around 8pm if not later. At work I drive sprinter vans box trucks or flatbeds loaded with vinyl fence materials so I'm used to only have side mirrors and the front 3 windows anyways.

Got a new gas tank and fuel pump to replace my smashed old one. Also used a little redneck wire rigging to pump the old gas out of the old tank.
