Ditch LIghts

I have to say that my ditch lights have been the best purchase as far as lighting goes for my truck. I have a set of Flood pattern side shooters by Rigid. I don't have a light bar across my windshield and don't have a need for one. These lights do what I need them too.

As far as ditch lights being mostly a "bro truck" or "instalander" accessory, I do have to agree there seeing as most the ditch lights I see are pointed straight forward or not even hooked up.

 

Agreed, and SoCal is the land of overbuilt and under-utilized. Different strokes for different folks. I've ran the 'con, and plenty of other trails at night but never saw the need for more than my old D2s and a few rock lights.

I get what the lights are supposed to do, I just don't see it as necessary

 

Well now your argument changes completely. None of the shit on our trucks is necessary

As far as ditch lights, there are far more bullshit tacoma-bro things you could bolt to your truck. Including but not limited to; roof-mounted hi-lifts, maxtrax, and rotopax.

 

Eh, my argument hasnt changed, I was saying they arent necessary from the beginning.

Follow up, do you guys run with them on all the time at night, and do you turn them off when other people are driving at you, like high beams?

 

I only run mine when I don’t have any other traffic on the road. I have my high beams and ditch lights on at the same time watching for big animals.

 

Here you state "just put them on for attention."

Here you admit value but shift argument towards ditch lights not being a "need."

Your argument is changing. I think you want the lights to not have a purpose whereas they do and now your argument is shifting towards "well thats stupid you have headlights."

 

Literal guys are literal. I didn't write my entire thesis on a meme, my bad.

 

So you just wanted to start shit? You're one of those guys who wears the rival jersey to a home game just so people give you attention aren't you
