Taking the driver's license of anybody under the age of 50 who stops in the middle of the highway in a snow storm to clean off their windshields and wiper blades. Seriously. And people who drive with their fog lights on 24/7 in areas of fifty miles visibility. Isn't four headlights considered driving with the high beams on? Some are okay. Some are obnoxious. And all unnecessary unless there is actually some fog. Steve The big difference there is that (properly aimed) high beams are aimed higher, and fogs are aimed lower than your regular headlights. Fogs don't bother me, high beams do. The key here is properly aimed. Many folks add after market fogs, and have no clue how to aim them. As a result, they look like high beams. --Mike |

Seriously. Whew, I'm over 50. Does that mean I can stop in the middle of the road to clean off my windshield? ;-) Be sure to put your flashers on so the guy who won't back off of 70 can have something to aim at. Steve |

As I say, some four lights are no different than two regular low beams. Then there are those blue obnoxious beams that are blinding even on low. Then there are the four lights that look like they're aircraft landing lights. And some as cross-eyed as that girl that sat across from me in Study Hall that I couldn't tell where the hell she was looking. Needs to be some regulations on those. In Utah, my home, there is a law on window tint, and there's a device they use to measure that. Seems like it would be easy to come up with one for headlights. I have some on my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500, and I never turn them on because I don't like the way they illuminate. IIRC, there's a commercial for SAAB ? where the houses have Christmas lights down the block, and they roll their two vehicles out, each with eight little lights or so on each side. How much light is enough? I guess enough to light up that Honda ahead of you stopped in the middle lane changing wipers. Steve |

Like I said... properly aimed fog lights should not bother you at all. BTW, I like your taste in trucks. 2003 Ram 2500 here...5.7 Hemi, 4wd, crew cab, full size bed, and... fog lights (factory) g. Been a Ram owner since 1984. --Mike --Mike |
