Side mirrors on 2020 touring

There's arguments to either way.
In some cases, such as pulling into one's garage, being able to manually operate them might be a necessity, otherwise one loses them on pulling into the garage.
In the event of pulling into an on street parking lot, it's more convenient to have them auto-fold when one shuts off the car.
In my case, I have a driveway that's 1.8 cars wide (don't ask me why - another 1.5 feet would have allowed two cars side by side), so, I have no need - thus I prefer the button operated one. On the other hand, if I still worked in the city, I'd want the automatic ones, because that's a horrible place to forget to fold in one's mirrors.
Maybe in a couple years, we'll get a system that can do both - plus the tilt-down-parking mode.

It's still an improvement from 2019 to 2020. 2020 Highlander has power folding mirror and I wonder if it's automatic.
For 2019 Ascent owners, myself included, it's pretty cool that they even offer it and I wouldn't mind retrofit the power mirrors and make it automatic using this $20 device.

I agree, If I can retrofit power folding mirrors from the 2020 Ascent or Legacy to my 2019 Ascent, I'll be a happy camper!
