LED bulbs are probably your only option.
Over the counter while on the road or when you get home?
On the road might be a problem, and if when getting home you can always order them and have them waiting for you.
Amazon has many choices.
I bought a set of OXILAM LED bulbs for my 1997 Chrysler Sebring.
It always had weak headlights even though they were Halogen.
They went from yellow and dim to white and bright.
But I'm pretty sure the '23 Cascadia already uses LED bulbs. Mine did. They just are not aimed that well. Non-adjustable as far as I could tell.
If they burn out the whole light assembly has to be replaced.Thrasher28 Thanks this. -
I’ve used Aukee in my truck for quite a few years now and I like them so far! They’re Amazon so….

Would recommend consulting the Bakersfield refrigerated haulers. They’ll have you seeing stars on I-40 at 3am.
AutoZone carries Sylvania LED replacements for most Halogen bulb sizes. Worked great in my pickup truck, and sold in store so no waiting on Amazon if you need them immediately. Sold over the counter, no prescription required
Looks like Walmart carries Sylvania H11 LED replacements as wellLast edited: May 21, 2026 at 5:03 AM

Mine are yellow and dim(can't see beyond 50' in the range of the beams).... I've even tried "polishing" the lenses.....

Bakersfield is nowhere near the I40.The closest it gets is about 150 miles west on the CA58 from Barstow.... -
With conventional halogen bulbs your choices are bright and short lifespan or dimmer and long lifespan . The hotter (brighter) it burns the faster it dies
