Powered rear view mirror?

Does Ford make a rear view mirror that is powered for up and down. I was a rear view window like on the four runner where the whole window goes down but i will take just a little section of the middle openning up too. Anyone have any ideas?

they used to make a product called the breezer window or something along those lines, where it made your whole back glass go down.

I have always wanted one for my screw, but if you look at the design of the cabs on these trucks, its about impossible to do.
the window area sticks out over the bed and the cab area is recessed in so that the bed front can tuck in a little.
In order to do that, the window would have to come in toward the front of the truck and then down. I havent seen anyone make anything like that.

When you said "rear view mirror" I assume you ment, "rear glass window". I don't think anyone makes anything for a vertical opening/closing window, but why not get the siding rear window option?

i remember inquiring about this a long time ago. someone said they looked into it and it was structurally impossible, mostly in part due to the cross sections of the back wall of our trucks.
