My old truck.
This was the before picture.
I painted the '99 mirror arms because they were rusting to h3ll.
People generally don't appreciate how much better the 08 mirrors are than the pre 08 mirrors. The '11 mirrors have heaters on the convex part, which I would dearly love to have. I use those all the time and it sucks when they are frosted up.
The really funny thing was that when I bought that truck in '99 it had the best mirrors you could get or put on a pickup truck. Even though they didn't telescope and weren't heated. Back then everyone was adding temporary mirrors on the front fenders to see the trailer.
The other funny thing is that 13 years later neither Dodge nor GM have caught up to Ford in the mirror department, IMHO. It makes me wonder if the guys who design these trucks actually use them.
