If you are driving around with your mirrors "fully deployed" for no functional reason or necessity, then you do fit into this category and this post likely hit a nerve.
Well my service truck has the mirrors out every day as they are required. My personal truck does not have towing mirrors, so no nerve struck.

I asked if you understood that a truck with deployed mirrors is narrower than a lane of traffic? You posted that a truck with its tow mirrors deployed takes up 1.5 lanes of traffic. It does not.

Just out of curiosity, if a mirror is about 100% more functional deployed instead of retracted is that serving a function or necessity? I ask because those Dodge mirrors are absolutely useless unless they are stood up. If I owned one of those trucks they would always be flipped up just to necessitate proper rearview vision. Worst mirror ever.
