Default Headlight issues

I searched to see if I could find any options but I could not find anything so I thought I would ask. Picked up my 11 screw eco saturday and tonight was the first time I took it out on the road at night. I come from years of superduties and i don't know if it is just me or what but on low beams i can't seem to see very far infront of me, maybe 20 feet or so. Wondering if anyone else has had any issues and what you did to fix it. My superduties' low beams seem to be as strong as my hi beam on the 150. Any suggestions?

Adjust them up a bit?

I understand; and many here have complained about the lighting not being bright enough.

This thread may shed some 'light' on the subject and what to avoid in attempting a fix:

These headlights are by far the easiest to adjust that I have ever adjusted. Raised them up a bit and they are much better but still don't seem very powerful in comparison to my last two superduties.

I found the same thing after three superduties and now, after installing a leveling kit, my 11 screw 4x4 Lariate plus doesn't seem to adjust low enough. Still a little high but not as powerful.
