Consumer Description

THE RAM 1500, 2014, THAT I CURRENTLY DRIVE HAS TERRIBLE HEADLIGHTS. AS THE TRUCK HAS GOTTEN A LITTLE OLDER THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE GOTTEN MUCH WORSE. THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TERRIBLE SINCE DAY ONE. I HAVE TAKEN THE TRUCK TO HAVE THE HEADLIGHTS PROFESSIONALLY BUFFED OUT, AND I HAVE CHANGED ALL FOUR BULBS WITH THE BEST BULBS I CAN FIND. ALMOST NO DIFFERENCE. THE TRUCK IS A DANGER TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I CANT SEE AT ALL. I AM SURE PEOPLE HAVE TROUBLE SEEING ME AS WELL.
