It just so happened that I needed to change my oil today, so here is a picture of what you can see in the mirror from the driver's seat, when you position the mirror correctly. You can watch your wheel go up and know exactly where you are on the ramp. This makes it much safer, IMHO. Not all of us have someone around all the time to guide us up.
