They fold back when you run into something or somebody. They also hook tree braches real good and redirect them into the cab and slap the snot outta you!

They were stock (or dealer installed) on the '73 to '79 Ford F series trucks.
Didn't tear huge holes out of the doors when they hit something, like the previous generations mirrors did.

I don't know of any Bronco that has been picked up from its home in 60 seconds.

More like "Gone in 6 hours; with the help of two friends, an engine hoist, and two come-alongs."
