Fred--
I'm glad you asked...You must purchase a "Miracle RV Rear-Viewer Thingy".
I don't know the brand name, (obviously), but ANY worthwhile RV supply
purveyor will have this wonder of modern science (since the 1960's).
It is a flat, clear, 12" x 10" vinyl gizmo you static-stick to your rear
window, no muss, no fuss. This incredible contrivance has tiny, prismatic,
concentric groves cut into the transparent vinyl. These grooves command and
control the passage of light, and offer you a 170 degree field of view.
I've used them for years, and look at the joy it has brought me...
Never before have you seen anything so astounding. Imagine your passengers
surprise when you reveal the secret your backwards-viewing success. Or
maybe you'll just leave them to wonder..."How does Fred see backwards so
well????"
But Fred, start saving now. Like most items of such high quality and
ingenious design, the Miracle RV Rear-Viewer Thingy is not available to the
spendthrift, or miser. You will be asked to pay about $8.00 for the medium
size (which I described). Fred, I know that's a lot to ask, but I assure
you, it is worth the cost, no matter what sacrifices you must endure for
its purchase.
A large size is also available, which is roughly the size of Vermont. If
you are a man of great means, it might be for you; it will cost you about
$20, and it allows you to view the entire planet at once (from a properly
orbiting spacecraft).
Your life won't be complete until you drive with one of these. No more
wrinkled bumpers because you backed into the neighbors' bushes...with this
device, you can actually SEE what's behind the van, close, AND far.
Amazing.
I wouldn't drive a VW van or bus without one. Get yours today.
