I was going down a curvey road, while snowing.... but ALL the roads were wet so i didnt think i woiuld have a prob, i was going slightly slower than the speed limit, following some drywall van... when i saw his rear end shimmy a lil, it was too late!! i tapped the breaks, nothing, steering gone.... what saved me from losing my whole front end to the mail box was this time i steered hard, even knowing i had no front end traction... But the trac control did kick in, and pulled my box those few inches, but not enough to save the mirror :doh:
So i called the dealer today i asked him "yeah watch it be like $200!" as a joke but he responded w/ "well, your only $3 off.... $197" i was like WTF!?!?!
So this is me sharing my story, and hoping someone out there might have a right rearview mirror around there house i could buy! BOP or any colour would do....
