Anyone else seen this 'trend'?

I haven't noticed the side curtain thing but I have noticed guys parking in a truck stop for the night and leaving their headlights on trend!

 

I flip the switch down, gives them a better target. Chicken lights provide less glair. I never get tired of replacing hoods & bumpers. It's always the right side of their wagon.

 

Then use the radio, or blip your marker lights. Depends on the truck and how the switch gear is setup. My Western Star has DRLs but I'm still not gonna high beam someone just to tell them what they already know (assuming their mirrors work). I really don't see the need to tell someone they can get back in front of you anyway...especially at night.

Sorry, just reread this and it sounds rude. Didn't mean it to be...must just be my Northeast upbringing

 

Actually its not the only option. Just about every truck I've driven has a marker interrupt switch. Believe me it does work if the drivers paying attention. And the DRL thing doesn't really work cause most of the ones flashing their brights are Crapcadias and they don't have DRL's. Its called drivers being way to lazy to lean forward to flip a switch.

 

Theres far too much bickering over this subject.Just raise your curtain,throw a beer bottle
at the passing drivers, passenger window,to alert him/her that your now gonna help drive his truck too.
Make sure to signal by firing a few "all clear" shots into rear of trailer.
Be sure to use a low glare ammunition,and tinted beer bottle,so as not to offend the other driver

Bright lights,dim lights,no lights..Im just happy if Im left with some pavement when side by side.
I only drop my curtain at night when getting my eyes lit up

 

Most of the recent trends have been started by the young fat Trekkie crowd who look like they're suffocating when they try to drive with their feet on the dash. They're their best to draw attention to themselves from fish lures in their face to blocks of wood in their ears. They're too fat for skinny jeans and sweatpants are for people who have to wear diapers, and the side curtains really help their ADD

On the otherwise of the spectrum, you have Mr Tall Shifter. He has his make of truck on everything he owns and wears, various places on his truck (so there is no confusion who the manufacturer is), after all some of you may confuse a Western Star with a Classic FLD. Its like a Harley owner with 18 wheels on his horse. Ever see a Harley owner without a HOG shirt, HOG wallet, HOG jeans, HOG girlfriends? He definitely won't have his curtains closed...not even at night. After all, if he closed his curtains, how would you ever be able to see the LED decorated interior that accompanies the main showpiece of the truck....the mighty gorilla shifter?

 

That was good!! Whats up with the raised shifters?Ive noticed that too.Seems like a bunch of posing,kinda like ape hangers bikers use.

 

Y'all kind of behind,the tall shifter thing was so,last year for the rooster cruiser crowd.i could tell you what's in now,but what fun is that?
