Default sun visor

Well, I guess you can learn something new everyday, even if the lesson takes several years, lol. The entire time I had my IS 250, I cursed the Lexus engineering on the sun visor. If the sun was coming in from the drivers side, and you flipped the sun visor to the left, the visor was not long enough to prevent the light from blinding you. My Tacoma, and older Camry, all have an internal extension which allows you to cover the light. When I bought my 450H, I remember commenting to the salesman about that issue, and bought the car regardless of that issue. And I would continue to curse the Lexus engineers for the lack of that extension. Then, a few days ago I aggressively grabbed the sun visor and low and behold, the visor slides out to block the light! Never knew it would do that. Lesson learned.
