[QUOTE="trust fund baby, post: 8377737, member: 664116"] No, you're stating opinion, I'm stating facts. Would you like to see the actual charts? I'm more than happy to post them for you. Or do you have no logical, factual rebuttal, so your feeble mind thinks playing it off like this is the way to go? Lol @ dd and sundownsyndrom. Yes, I would. Your friend is an idiot driving a car with very little usable light output. I hope you live in an area with good street lights/ambient lighting.
