Those look bloody incredible.. I cant wait to get tow mirrors for my truck, I dont know why dodge even came out with the stupid looking sport mirrors!! I personnally dont like the aftermarket ones with the LEDS.. they look to much like the chevy mirrors..
Well for those that may be thinking of switching to Tow mirrors, I have noticed something I really didn't even think about before I got them.
I have lost about 1.5 mpg on my fuel economy. I've gone 2 tanks now, and am down to 15.5 mpg's where as I was getting 17's before hand... Doesn't bother me as my fuel is reimbursed by my job, but for others thinking about switching, might put a damper in things...
Is that mileage mixed driving or highway only? I'm only averaging 10.5 mpg on my truck. You wouldn't think that those mirrors would cause that much drag.
It's 90% highway driving. Cruise set on 62, fairly flat terrain. There might be something else wrong with my truck, but as of now, the only thing I changed was the mirrors, and the drop is pretty significant.
