Are we talking DRL’s or actual headlights?
Oxbow and blairandgretchen Thank this. -
Yeah, they are the running lights, not head lights per se. But they still light up the trucks across in the other parking lane. Shines right into the interior of the trucks across from me. They are bright. You cant turn those off. Actually, & this is the honest truth. When I do turn the headlight switch to the off position, I can't see any difference. Its just as bright.
I'll also add this, I was going through Diabol, TX on 59 about 2 months ago. Pulled up to a traffic light & a couple in a car bumped his horn. I looked over & he said, buddy, you aint got no tail lights. I thanked him, looked down & the dash lights were on & I had headlights or at least I thought I did (it was the running lights). Looked at the headlight switch.... Off.
Those dang auto headlights. Apparently, as it began to get dusk, the lights (running lights) came on but didn't turn on the trailer tail lights... just the running lights & dash lights. It was about 30 minutes into dark by that time. Turned the head light switch on , stopped & all was good.
The auto detection turned on before it was dark enough to notice.... then I never noticed because the running lights were on. Had they not been on, as it got dusk, I would have noticed. As it was, I drove about 45 minutes after I should have without tail lights.
Again... new and improved

Im not a covenant driver, so that means brights blazing all day and night in the parking lot is okay right?
