Have LED Light Bars Gotten Out of Control?

Put this on the list of insignificant things that bother me.
Admitably, they have their place and usage on ATVs/UTVs and I don't mind them on vehicles that actually see some offroad usage, however a 50" roof mounted light bar on your certified mall crawler or 2wd F150 is a bit silly. Especially when you ride around with it turned on in broad daylight.
I've been seeing them everywhere, even on some 2wd vehicles. Last week I saw a 2WD dually with dual stacked 50" bars on the roof and a 30" bar actually drilled into his hood. No....just no.

I don't like the roof mounted ones, though to each their own. I want to add a bull bar to the front of my truck and put an LED bar on it. Mainly for use around the camp and driving back an forth to an from to add to my high beams.

I have a dumbass neighbor with a Jeep loaded with them. During the winter they had a feeder out in their back yard, and would ride around their house with all those lights on several times. I guess they were hoping to view deer eating at the feeder.

that guy probably does a bunch of work in the dark that those really help with.

There's a 4x4 F150 driving around Houma with two stacked light bars on the roof.
The guy must bleed douche.

I'm assuming it's one of the people that own/work for CSC, but I still think it looks ridiculous.

Yes. I don't care who you are. If you have a light bar across your entire windshield you are laughable.

You leave me and my broad generalizations alone! 
But to go further he had a Salt Life sticker and a #illest sticker and spike lugs.

I'm out on the back roads a decent amount though the year and I can't justify having even a 20" light bar for my grill.

I have a 20" one that I bought 2 years ago to install in the open space of my bumper and never did. They have their place but the roof mounted ones kill me.
See this dude in Lafayette all the time. Note the dual 50"ers, another in the bumper and 2 in each headlight. Granted alot of guys use stuff like this to promote shops.

How do people get in those?

The duals are fricking dumb. We tried stacked on a UTV and it wasn't any brighter than having just one

Frick a Q beam with that thing... would actually be pretty nice to have... Would be useless in the fog though...

That's a pretty practical use IMO and something I personally would love to have. A mall crawler with that light is

I am still trying to get a picture of the stock mid-90s 2WD F150 with smashed side bed panel and a smooth full roof display.
My jimmies get rustled into another fricking universe over these light bars.
"Hey bro, how many lumens are you pushing?"
