I dont really care what you think. You've been a member her for 3 days and have made several rude and unnecessary posts, if you were a member of a better run forum you'd have been banned already. Unfortunately this forum's mods dont get rid of ppl like you so we're stuck with you.

I'm with budfreak if you dont like it dont look at my girl b/c she always has them on.

How exactly is stating my opinion that saturns and tbirds look like crap 'rude'? Surely you have some cars that you think are less than attractive, but if you mention them does that mean you're being rude? Is this a forum where we can't possibly ever disagree with anybody and must constantly blow sunshine up each other's asses? Should we sit around a campfire and sing koombahaya? or are we allowed to discuss and disagre eand learn from each other?! Maybe if we all had the same opinions as you (which are acceptable and right, because anyone who disagrees you consider 'rude' and 'unnecessary'), we could all just post and agree on everything and it would be a swell place.

PS: IT IS MY OPINION, and you are allowed to have a different one, that Tbirds and saturns look like garbage. YOU might think otherwise, but I don't consider your differnce of opinion 'rude' like other narrow minded peoples.

Maybe I can make it a little more clear. It is not what you said, but the way you said it that made it rude.

This is the type of fourm that we try to respect others opinions, but not insult people by giving ours. Thanks

I have been flashed with mine too, but I think that the other driver thought that I had my brights on. They are not bright, but show two lights and some around here are not the brightest bulbs in the socket.

In a couple of my cars, I have the amber lights and have never been flashed with those because they look different enough that they look like fog lights.

I usually drive at night with mine on because I am in the country and they light up the road better and I can see more. When in the city, I usually turn them off.

Yes it is. If you don't like it I can suggest a place where you might be happier http://www.srtforums.com/

kthxbye.

p.s. I drive with my low beams and fogs on constantly. I let them turn on and off with the ignition. In fact I rarely even touch the lights other than the occasional blip to high beams on backroads. I can't remember the last time someone brighted me.

I grew up in the 80's and I used to own an 88 t-bird

AvPPoW · #55 02-19-2006, 12:55 PM

My fogs stay off because they burnt out and I'm too lazy to replace them

nexus_7 · #56 02-19-2006, 03:20 PM

Always on when my lights are on. It just lights up the road better, and it dosnt aim in anyones eyes.

I get flashed all the time when the fogs are on. 90 percent of the time it's by trucks, whose lights are already blinding to begin with - so it's quite kind of them to feel the need to blind me further with their highbeams.

Of course I flash them back, but I've had a few instances where I may have been quick to flash back and they may have just been hitting bumps instead of actually flashing me...which i feel badly about.

It got so frustrating that I usually just turn them off now, even though the fogs help out a lot with illuminating the sides of the road in case of an errent dear or what not.

But I got tired of being blinded all the time. However I do turn the fogs on when I'M driving on the highway just cuz no dickheads can flash me constantly.

Part of the problem with that is a lot of domestic vehicles use their highs and lows in the same housing so you can't tell if in fact they did flicker their lights.

Same for people with burnt out taillights on most domestic cars. Are they turning or just pumping the break?

Nobody knows.

That's why I drive a Subaru.

I occasionally have trouble picking-up a blinking turn signal on the front of some cars at night because it's so bleepin' close to the headlight. Stupid design, in my book.
