"I can see clearly now!"

[Sweetee]

I know many have chased their tail trying to improve night-time lighting. My '12 Express was terrible and I started out by replacing OEM bulbs with higher output. Then I went to OPT7 LED headlights and HID fogs. Marginally better, but still not very good. I even mounted some driving lights behind the grill, but LEO's didn't like 6 bright lights out the front! I know many will say HIDs are the route to go, but it just didn't happen.

Last month we traded the '12 in on a '17 Laramie. Last night was the first chance to drive very dark country roads and I have to say I am very pleased with the improvement. Lowbeams with fogs were fine and high beams reached out further than I've ever experienced. The color isn't the same as our HID equipped Town & Country, but it is close as far as reach goes. Plus, I don't feel the need to tear apart the front end "chasing my tail." At least for a while!

I had my wife and daughter with me and if I had stopped to take pix last night I'd have been broadsided from both sides. Pix to follow.

Hmmm wierd.. I wonder if they upgraded lighting options for 2017?? My 16 sucks halogen dik... Haha

I was excited for projection headlamps... then met with disappointment first night.

Congrats on the new truck. Upgrade those projectors with HIDS and you will be really impressed!

I added drop in hid's for my ttruck from retroshop and the light output increase was amazing. If stock is better for you from the old style quads or duals that is great but it can be much better

And it will be super easy to upgrade as well.

congrats on the new truck first of all. I bought a 17 ram sport and wanted more light output as well. Im running hid's on the low beams (projectors) led's in the high beams and fog lights and wow. It is so much brighter.

Remember that I'm coming from non-projector dual halogens. Anything should be an improvement. The vertical fogs seem to be better too!
