In the Freightliner and the Kenworth that I have driven you can fold the side view mirrors back if you need to. My Volvo 780 seems to lack this capability. Is there something I am not seeing or some trick?
Can you fold 780 Mirrors?

It should have the capability. The top cross brace (top of door) should come out of the back side of the slide if you push it. Inside the bottom mirror bracket is a spring loaded bolt that helps it pivot. You can reach up from the drivers window, slide it out towards the trailer and push it in.

I believe @Bakerman and @Scooter Jones run Volvos, Maybe they will stop by and give you the 411

push it out first then after that the top brace comes out you can fold it all the way in, they are not adjustable, but you can fold them in all the way.

Never had a reason to fold my mirrors.
Like @nasriza says, you need to move the top brace to fold them.Shock Therapy and Midnightrider909 Thank this.
