Took a little cure from Ram eh?
“Black Appearance Package”
They are sharp looking trucks though! Super Duty’s always have been.
Rams with the dead foot sticking out each side? Oh wait that's a mirror.
Worst mirrors I have ever had , and they continue with them . Wouldn't be the end of the world if they would copy the ford mirrors .
Maybe I'm just easier to please, but I've driven all of the big 3, pulling trailers since the 80s and starting in the 2000s with the SuperDutys, Dodge moose antlers and GMs in 06 when they got the "Ford Style" extendable mirrors and have found them all to be just fine. I'll give the nod a bit to the Ford/GM styles, but the fact that the Ram mirrors fold in and become become less obtrusive when performing soccer dad duties is also a convenience.
Basically all of them since they finally did away with the old tripod, bolt to the door, towing mirrors are great.
Although I'd guess if the Ram mirrors were as bad or unpopular as a few folks like to profess, Ram would have changed them up rather than continuing with the same concept from 20 years ago. But they're probably trying to please the majority, not the minority. Sell more trucks that way....
Let me rephrase that , between the Superduty ,and the Laramie ,the Ford IMO is the better mirror. Is it the deciding factor on a purchase ,certainly not. Just an observation going from the Ford to the Ram. I have gotten used to the Ram mirrors in the tow position they are great , my complaint is when they are not. The spot mirror in the tow position is at the bottom , but to me its distracting otherwise. The Ford regardless of what position the mirror is at the spot mirror is always at the bottom .
I agree , they are hands down better now then the old tripod mirrors.
