Lex, I find it funny that my brother's 2006 F-150 Lariat has the ability to fold the side view mirrors by holding down the adjustment knob on the door panel; but my 2009 Edge LTD does not....weird. As for the tilting mirror, my fathers 2003 X5 has that option and it is useful. However, the blind spot mirror on the 09's is a life saver, you never have to look back.
