Thank you everyone for the great tips and thoughts. I already ordered the steel window lifts. Our VX came with the small wallmart blind spot mirrors already in place and yes, they are quite helpful. Also we ride with the rear seat folded flat and that seems to help a somewhat with the rear view. My son is only allowed to ride with me for now and then only with one other person next year. Rear view camera is coming next just as soon as I pay for the two torn cv boots, and new tires. Again thank you for the warm welcome. Look forward to getting to know you all better.
One final question, the previous original owner always put premium unleaded in this vehicle. Should I continue this practice?
Stay safe,
