2015 Toyota Tundra question
I'm very near buying a 2015 Toyota Tundra to pull our 24' travel trailer and have a question for anyone here who may already own one. There's a "tow mirror" option with wider mirrors, but the dange...

OP, their are all kinds of options for towing mirrors. We have a 2010 Tundra and originally got Cipa slip on mirrors. They slip over the standard mirrors and provide a wider mirror for towing. It worked fine on shorter trips, though they would sometimes vibrate.
When we started making yearly trips to Florida, my bride would drive for 2 hours just to give me a little bit of rest. We found it was pretty annoying to use the slip on mirrors with multiple drivers, because you had to manually adjust the mirrors for each driver. Its not that big of a deal... until its raining, the dogs are barking, your daughter is crying, etc etc.
We decided to buy a set of used OEM mirrors and swap them out ourselves. Now we have the benefits of electronic adjustment, heated mirrors when towing in the snow, wider base of the OEM mirrors when extended, etc.
If you are interested in slip on mirror extensions, I would recommend the Cipa's.
OK. That's the info I needed from a Tundra owner that's already figured it out for me ;)
If the towing mirrors are changeable by a half-fast home mechanic with tools, that's exactly what I'll do. I'll buy with standard and consider buying the towing mirrors if needed.
Many thanks
