There's no perfect forum posters, maybe except for at least one.

On your own? Youtube has some great channels.
As a profession? Do something else.

I honestly hate new lights with a passion. They're blinding, have hard cutoffs instead of softer edges, glare in every fucking direction; they're not even better for you to see at night! My plain old yellow-white halogens do a far better job providing a safe light pattern for me and people around me than most modern lights do, which is kind of funny.
Edit, to add: Lights do not need to keep getting brighter to drive at 90mph in the middle of the night, you should adjust your speed accordingly and not out-drive your lights. This increase in brightness but shitty patterns/colors is pointless and creates more dangerous drivers. Also auto-high beams, dumb. So unbelievably dumb as fuck.
*lights up the world for everyone else*
Homie, your lights cast in every direction and blind other drivers as is. It is not your DRLs doing that. It's your projectors being flat out wrong.

Awful lot of off axis glare for not high beams.

No her legs are short too. So's her torso. She's short all over but mostly on patience.

Whats up boys!
Checkin in. I found a computer addiction to redirect my car parts one. Turns out, they're not that much cheaper....
91 240sx I've owned for a decade or 2. Many renditions, many motors. After a decade in storage, it is currently having the engine bay shaved and a GM LS6/T56 from a Corvette C5 Z06 going in. Many other things, including some preventative and not so much rust repair (damn pinch welds)

And since we were talking about a truck we're going to use a truck as an example, ya know, to be grounded in the discussion:
75mph = 16mpg
65mph = 24mpg
700 mile @ 75mph = 9.33 hours , 43.75 gal @ $3.50 = $153
700 mile @ 65mph = 10.77hours , 29.17 gal @ $3.50 = $102
Is an hour and a half worth $50? Sometimes kinda, yeah.
*But why 75!? I said 82! -> Average Interstate speed limit.

The alternators huddle together before the impending winter, gathering their flock before migrating south for the winter.
