I would gladly trade the power folding for heat.
There’s a lot of talk about heated mirrors - I ‘ve never had that feature on any vehicle and I’ve lived in different places from coast to coast here in the Great White North. I’ve never seen the need for mirrors to be heated but I’ve always had a garage.

So, I’m genuinely curious - do the folks wanting this typically park outdoors?

Yes...

Also, as a canuckian shouldn't you be apologizing for having a garage when others don't?

Lol

I park in the garage. Lately, we seem to be getting more ice around here than snow. Yesterday morning while going to work, it was foggy and misty and all that moisture collects on the mirrors. With heat, they clear up really quick.

Also heated glass is available on the '23 with 302a Package... That makes me think it was available on previous years, some of y'all just decided not to get it...

IJS.

How can you tell if some one is a crossfitter?

Wait a second, and they'll tell you.

How can you tell if someone is a damper lover?

Wait a second and they will show you, while telling you...
Especially when’s it’s a Ford Performance one and they are only available thru @AzScorpion ?

Heated mirrors weren't available.

Press releases said it was in the 302A package but it wasn't.

My truck has everything available on an XLT and the mirrors aren't heated.

But for some reason, the near-verticle rear window that never sees an accumulation of anything is indeed heated. ?

Yes.

And you must apologize to your neighbors for not having a smooth graded snow field in front of your igloo.

It’s for when you drive around in reverse during a lake effect snow storm.

My car doesn’t come with heated mirrors either….

I’m putting in a call to Ford Customer Service.

Drainage is not an issue when you build on permafrost - it’s in our building code.

Me too.

And I think I'll also complain about that engineering issue that got by QC.

I just wish my truck was a 301a instead of a 300a. The plastic steering wheel kinda sucks and I really wanted the grey bumpers and nicer wheels. My budget didn't cover a new truck with the options I wanted, though, so I had to settle for a used one with the really important options. (FX4 and tow package.)
