Why do 8 out of every 10 we all pass on the road have a front running light winking at us? Pretty big domestic vehicle turnoff.

Are you inferring that they always have one bulb out? That’s more to do with the cheap arse or lazy arse not fixing it

Why are Chevy/GM owners so lazy and fat?

Because they have modern luxuries like the automobile.

As much as they cost, you would think they could produce a light as good as Ford and Toyota.

All trucks look the same anyway.

Similar looks, until you notice the odd square wheel wells. Another terrible design.

Because they are laughing at all the Fords broke down on side of the road.

Had an early 2000s Chevy that still had the original bulbs in the running lights and were both still working at 120k. Should have kept that truck I guess.

There is some kind of issue with those damn marker lights. I had two Suburbans in a row that always had one burned out for some unknown reason.

Protip for you baws. I had a GM Quality manager tell me to check the sticker of the GM truck/SUV that you are looking to purchase. If made in Jaynesville, Wisconsin, buy it. If made in Mexico, never, never get that vehicle. I bought a 2002 Suburban made in Jaynesville and sold it 12 years later with 165,000 miles with only routine mainetanance. GM dude knew his stuff. I’ve had a number of Tahoe’s, Yukon’s and GMC trucks since and always check that assembly location.

They've had that problem since they first introduced DRLs on trucks in 99 IIRC. Never gave enough shits to fix it. I just unplugged mine

I assume DLR is an acronym for Dis Light Ratchet.

Correct me if I’m wrong but ford and Toyota don’t have daytime running lights

The GM lights get a lot more “use time” so they burn out quicker.

That’s my thoughts on it but could be wrong

Then why can't GM use the same type of bulb on the left and the right? Why use a brand that burns out when clearly a better alternative is just a bin away?
