The tow mirriors look great and provide great visibility and make the truck look like a truck, just my .02

Agreed 100%. Why didn't Ford just use the mirrors from the SD? They're heated, power telescoping and have signal lights / clearance lights. What a concept!

Yes I wish Ford would make power fold TT mirrors available on the 150. Why not, FORD?

yes! Those are bad *** looking! Dont know how anyone doesnt like em. Theyre really the same as the superduty mirror without the runnin lights. and some minor differences. But no if i were to get an F150 it would have to have those mirrors.

Some guys don't like them, but the main issue is that they are not power, heated signal mirrors like on the SD. I think they look great.
