Not impressed with the headlights.
I just got back from a weekend road trip with my new truck. Friday night we were driving on a remote highway. I have to say the headlights and high beams were not very impressive. I'd have to say there were pretty poor actually. I had a Subaru Impreza before this with projector beams which were fantastic ( I know these will be bright ) but my wife's 2008 Grand Cherokee has halogen lamps just like the f150 and they are waaaay brighter. Come on Ford, you can do better. I know you can.

Retro Fits are the way to go if you want a good quality never let you down type of head light, but you will pay a hefty price for them. Now you can go on Ebay and get yourself a Projector Headlight with HID's installed in them, and you will never complain again. Now some people will say Ebay Projectors are junk, it's really just personal likeings to them. You will pay $150-200 at most for them, and they are very bright. I loved mine, and it sure beats paying $300 for just a projector, and thats not even including having someone install it and go through all that process to get it to you after there done. Your truck, your opinion, your money do whats going to please you.
