I've the same mirror but haven't experienced an obstruction of view. I can
think of a couple of reasons why we differ on this:

1. You are taller than I. I'm 5' 11".
2. You regularly turn at an intersection where traffic on your right is
coming down a hill.

Well thank goodness you have this one item to grouch about, otherwise the
Prius would be forcing you into creating a new NG screen name

Taller people tend to have some forward view blocked by the rear view
mirror on the NHW20 Prius. A common suggestion is to pivot the mirror
upwards (I think you can even flip it 180 degrees) to get it a little
higher and out of your way.

Yes, I moved the mirror upward as much as I could (didn't flip it), and it
made a big difference. I think it even improved my field of view out the rear
window.

Ah, it pivots up easilly, and that made a big difference. Thanks.
