Parked next to 2010 model?

Went to Wally world the other week and parked next to this rig.
I'm guessing this is the new 2010...

Why they running Ford wheels?



Kidding, that is a good looking truck, too bad they'll send it to the crusher.




I'd love to own one, I just don't like the direction the company is going in.

Dodge has the best mirrors out there. GMs arent terrible, but Fords are the worst. I cant see crap behind me driving company Fords. The 08+ style is better, but still lacks

As much as I like that '10, my '06 has less than 2 years left owed on it and I'm trying to buy a house so I gotta make the '06 last. I like those mirrors, wonder what has to be done to make them work on mine?

He didn't have a picture of the glass side of the mirror, but I actually think the 2010's are a worse design than the 3rd gens. The spotter mirror is repositionable (if thats a word) so you can see up or down further out the window, but when the mirrors are folded down (like they are in the pic) it takes up the outer quarter of the mirror from top to bottom and gives you HUGE blind spots. I end up flipping them out in all the test trucks I've been working with.

Oh and the red button is an emergency kill switch, if it's one of our trucks it'll kill the ABS in the event of a less than ideal activation during validation and testing.
