Why don't some heavy duty trucks have the big tow mirrors?
Just out or curiosity I've seen some ford super duties and even 1 ton duallys have the regular mirrors not the tow style mirrors. Why is that? If those trucks are meant for towing and hauling things why don't some have tow mirrors?
Added (1). the reason why I'm asking bc my Aunt has a friend that has a 2002 Ford F-250 lariat and I might get it once he sells it and I'm afraid it's gonna have the regular mirrors and I don't want to spend over $100 just to get a pair of tow mirrors
If you don't order them with a Tow package they don't put them on. They knocked them off on the garage door! Primarily because a large percentage of these trucks are purchased by poseurs who will NEVER use the truck for towing. And they don't want those big towing mirrors.

- Why don't car companies remake some of their classic car models if people like them so much? Of course safety is in mind because everyone would freak out if they didn't have a seat belt and air bags in every inch of the car, but why can't some of the companies just remake their best selling car models? Dodge could remake their 1948 Sedan and Ford could remake their 1949 Custom. I could list more but I can't think of any more classics.
- Why does Michigan have such a heavy automotive influence? I know I may sound kind of stupid asking this but it's been bugging me for awhile. GM, Ford, and Chrysler all have their headquarters in Michigan and mainly produce and manufacture cars their so I d just like to know why.
- Why can't powerful cars tow like trucks can? I don't know if this a dumb question, but I don't understand why you can't, I know you aren't supposed to but why. If my 230 hp Ford Ranger can tow 6000lbs, why can't the 845 hp dodge demon tow something, it has way more hp, way more torque and 2 more cylinders. Does it have something to do with the suspension not being able to hold the weight or what?
- I have a '99 Ford Ranger with the 4x4 Off Road package. Does this include a heavy duty suspension? It's also a 6cyl 4.0 liter. I need to know because I need to change my rear parking brake cable and it specifies with or without heavy duty suspension. How would I know?
