R.I.P. Scout26
On any vehicle with a working non-blocked rearview I also set the mirrors to make everyone else cuss. Kick the left mirror out to where I can barely see the edge of the car with my head leaning on the driver's glass, lean to the right same amount and repeat. Takes a good while to warm up to, really a whole different scan pattern or concept. Blind spots are gone, the only way someone can sneak in is to be two or more lanes off and slightly behind and then slide over to you. Which you should have already seen them coming to that spot.... Between that and actively managing the space in front and behind my car I expect to know where everyone is at on the road. I will give a quick blind spot glance but if I need to change lanes in a hurry I know where the hole is already.
10 and 2 doesn't give good control in an emergency maneuver, anyway. 9 & 3, with the two hands fully opposed, gives significantly better control.
OK, next question......middle finger on the right hand or middle finger on the left hand?.......
With a proper wheel in a high performance setting, 9 & 3, daily, depending on the wheel, 9 & 3 or 8 & 4.
I'm going to guess 1977 to 1982, now where you were is trickier, supermodifid or 30x90?
My brother owned Quality Frame & Alignment on Raymond St off of Midway in Shreveport, LA and I was the front end / chassis mechanic. I built the chassis on that car and several others.
