Idea for Side mirrors
would it be possible to make the mirrors adjust automatically to face the pavement when you put it in reverse to make parking easier? 
My friends TBSS has that feature and i thought it was cool. maybe radioflyer can come up with something

I'd bet there is some way to make it happen - one of our creative members or vendors might have some ideas.

I had a Cadillac SRX that did that. I'll bet someone could retrofit the existing GM parts and make it work. Probably wouldn't be worth the effort though.

What I would do is program #3 for your seat position and the mirrors adjusted to the ground, I am sure it would work. Then all you have to do to get back where you were is push button 1.
1 is for me. 2 is for my son and 3 is for parking... easy.
To program #3 all you have to do is set everything where you want it and push and hold both button 1 and 2 till they blink, To recall #3 just push both 1 and 2 buttons.
I do have to add that I am able to park without the mirrors pointing to the ground.

I just added the little dots for towing trailers. the small convex ones..they work great
#2 program should work fine though, just set seat, column etc same as #1 and just move mirrors down..adjustment will only take a second

My Acura TLS has this feature. I like it, however to be honest, when backing out my Vette, it already sits low enough where I really don't miss the mirror lowering like the Acura.
I could definitely seen the need in an SUV.

With the price of some of the wheels on the market,this is a great idea.I know I always adjusted mine when parking,didn't want the curb rash.
I never thought about programming #2. Great idea!

..of course for me, I am preset 1 and preset 2 because no one drives StuzVette but Stu... so I will use 2...
