One other observation that I have that others have hit on... DRL's do not activate the tail lights on these vehicles. Dummies that expect the government to do everything for them don't seem to realize that and drive 24 hours a day with nothing more than DRL's activated.

I feel that the lights make me more visible day and night, so I chose to leave them on.
