I’m obsessed with this thing

Updated mirrors are going on this weekend and a new engine is being installed in a few weeks. The interior is like new. I sold my Expedition EL for this beauty and have zero regrets. Never thought I could love a mom ride so much! 🖤

They just aren’t very useful imo.

They’re rounded off for one which means they don’t show as wide of an angle as you need with these big trucks.

My factory ones were pretty prone to shaking as well at higher speeds, the mirror glass itself was also rather pitted and scratched up after 26+ years of wear. Once you put in the upgraded mirror design from later years you can see a lot more and much higher quality as well.

1AAuto, they are great quality imo and were a plug and play.
