Yup, same here. Without fail the last thing we do before the DW gets in the cab. She checks left, right, brake and running lights - every time we hook up. After she gets in the cab we run through our hook-up check list.
I also put LEDs in my tail/brake lights. I read somewhere one time that the faster response of LED brake lights give the guy behind you and extra 30 feet stopping distance at 60 MPH.
The faster response is obvious on our fiver since it has four tail/brake lights and I put LEDs in the bottom one on each side. They are noticeably faster coming on. Gives a double flash of brake lights.
