    I think I quit waking up smelling bedding and slamming cut gates JIT at about age 75. Started rewinding my first sex escapades then and still kind of rouse up over them. (Whole body, not the tool.)

    It's mostly an old-school thing, though.

    A lot of guys just do it for the look.

    Define “old school” cause it wasn’t a thing until maybe late 90’s early 2,000’s. Don’t really consider that old school.

    Mid 70's to mid 80's we put the two lights under the bumper. Then bumpers got lower and lights started going on the side.

    Hornets and ticks. What else do you have conversations with?

    I remember having lights under the bumper myself. Another thing that used to be really popular were lighted bumper guides. I ain’t seen those in a minute. But yeah, come to think of it, lights on the side really started when those big 20,22 and 24” Texas bumpers became all the rage.
