power telescoping tow mirror
#11
Yeah, all you need to find is the Max Tow Package to get the power folding/telescoping mirrors. This was a big reason I ordered my King Ranch. I test drove one with those mirrors and I loved the big mirrors especially the big blind spot mirrors. I would have never been happy without them after that

Got em on my 2013 Plat with the Max Tow Package- When pulling a large trailer (29ft) these are really needed. I am sure they create a bit more drag when not trailering, but thats minor. I have a top on the bed with limo blacked on the topper windows ( so no one can see my toys inside) and the center rear view is useless. These max tow mirrors are critical.

I agree the max tow mirrors are AWESOME! I use those convex mirrors a LOT...no blind spots with them.They are so good my wife even commented on them when she drove the truck pulling the boat.

Thats why I love them, NO blind spot with those mirrors. The only drawback I have noticed is that I'm letting my son learn to drive in the truck and the mirrors stick out far enough that he makes me nervous when driving. I would much rather buy him a car now to learn in, but fear his grades will suffer if i don't use the promise of a car as a "carrot".

I love the tow mirrors but they do stick out pretty far when they are all the way in. The passanger side has hit a bunch of crap going down the tight back roads and it took out a POS chevy truck tow mirror back in may. Now I get nervous when I'm passing an other guy with tow mirrors.

There is absolutely no going back to regular mirrors for me. Every F-150 I see at the dealer doesn't have max tow so I'm not even tempted. Maybe that's a good thing.
I don't understand why more trucks aren't ordered with max tow when its such an inexpensive option.

id bet money I could retrofit it on any f-150. maybe not using the computer in the car but throught buttons its simple. when I get some free time im going to do it! First I have to find where I can order the 2013 max tow mirrors and the button in cabin

Do it! A lot of us will do the same. Tough to get the Ford and Dad's Avalanche in the garage together.
