    Me, three.

    If you adjust your lights to where they don't shine at the cars, you'd only be able to see a few feet in front of your truck.:rolleyes:

    post #4 has two links for adjusting headlights.

    Or if you are still under warranty, take it in to the dealer and let them fix your lights - it's a safety issue. If you aren't under warranty, you could always ask at your local stealership how to adjust them. Some of them will help you out. Mine does for little things at no charge.

    It doesn't help that I have led headlights either...... And a 2 inch lift just perfectly beams the light in there face...
