(Fog lamps without low beams)

You missed my point......

I'm talking fog lamps, WITH parking lights, AND Rear Fogs, AND rear
tails.  And the type of conditions I'm talking about are blizzard.  Here
in the Lake Effect Snow Belt (250+"/season) we get regular whiteouts. 
Were talking 15 mph sometimes when you hope the tracks your squinting to
follow don't go into the ditch 'cause you're going there too.  Until
you've been in this situation and tested "fogs only" vs "fogs with lows"
will you understand that "fogs only" = SEE; "fogs with lows" = BLIND.

(my fellow lake effecters/mountaineers will attest to this I'm sure)

So I'll stick by my fogs WITHOUT lows in these conditions, because its a
lot safer.  And I highly doubt I'll get a ticket (how's he going to
catch me; I'm in a quattro with Hakka's, and I can see where I'm going.
Heh Heh  Heh.....:-)

PS... I already made the point that the fogs are useless for any other
purpose.  Since they don't even shine as far as the low beams, why the
hell would anyone drive with them only?
