If it is automatic, then you would always use it.

all these electronic gadgets/motors just add weight to an already too heavy car.

Oh so what you guys mean is when the car turns off the mirrors automatically fold in? Still kinda pointless. I would like mirrors that tilt down so i dont hit a curb when im reversing.

+1 on this being pointless in the US....

but if you have ever spent time in Tokyo, where everything is tiiiiiiiiiiiiight and crowded streets/parking are the norm, these mirrors are a necessity. I've seen cars fold their mirrors in while driving to just squeeze thru downtown traffic.
