I was wondering how everyone drives, i mean do you drive with your fog light on, you head lights, you angel eyes. also do you use the sst or just use the automatic, or even 5 speed. or the steering wheel all the way in or out.
i was just curious i see all the ls's aroung here drive at night with no fogs on i wonder if people know how to turn them on it looks soo much better. stupid thread but what the heck, its been a down time this week. have a good weekend :wave

i use my fogs...mainly cuz it looks alot better, and gives slightly more visibility. my steering wheel is close to my legs so that i can use my knees when needed. :Beer

did you get your door figured out???

Since I'm a taller guy, I drive with the seat all the way back and the wheel out just about an inch. Its a comfortable position for me. Usually, when it is before dark, i run with my parking lamps and fogs lamps on because it looks cool. Otherwise at day; nothing and at night; headlights. I just bought some slyvania silverstar headlights that look great too.

The silver star looks great in the fog lights too. Get the high beam, the 9005 They are a perfect fit for the 9145 fog light lamp
 
My wife drives it with the fogs on with the headlights. They actually help a little.

Thanks for the tip. :Beer
I've been looking for the silver star 9145's
 
I hate people who drive around with their fog lights on. It's even more pathetic that some have admitted they do it because they believe it looks better.

I drive with the seat all the way back, and the steering wheel all the way out, but even that's not enough. It needs another inch of travel. I like the seat up kinda high because it allows me to bend my knees more, which helps given the close proximity of the dead pedal. I wish it could be removed leaving just flat floor.

And at night, I just use my headlights. Factory headlights.

Take it easy!!!! since when do fog lights hurt other people?!!! geez!!

:steering i happen to like my foglights & i hope you see me one day on the road while they are on. :N



oh yeah, even when its not dark, i still keep my lights on... and the fogs too. just cuz it looks SO much better!!!!! :L
 
I drive with the regular headlights. I'll turn the brights on when I need them.

My wife drives like Ted Kennedy and the liquor store is closing in 5 mins.

You should NEVER drink & drive.........cuz you might hit a bump & spill your drink.
 
How do you drive?

Now that is a good one! Never heard that term before. I drive like I was 40 years younger -- so says my wife! Lincoln love.
 
I hate when people drive with their headlights on when it isn't dark enough out because it tends to blind me, however, I realize that some people are half-blind when driving and need to see lights to know a car is on the road, so I drive with my fogs on when it is raining or when it is slightly dark out. When it is dark, I drive with the fogs and headlights. Where I live, the fogs REALLY help to see the road. I drive a lot of twisty back roads where the lines are gone, or were never painted.

Oh...and yes, it looks cool with the fog lights on. I think those are actually driving lights, as real fog lights would be yellow anyway.
 
Drive with headlights and fogs on all day. I have yellow bulbs in the fogs and at night I see a good amount more than just the headlights alone. Plus I like how they look!
 
my lights are set to auto w\fog lamps set to turn on when it gets dark. My wipers are set to auto as well. Face it we bought the car becasue of the gimmicks so I employ them every day rather at night or when raining.

Got any night shots with the yellow fogs? I like the way that looks on the Lexus cars with HIDs, but its hard to find good quality yellow bulbs.

Oh yea, and I drive with just the fogs on when the sun starts to go down. I happen to like the way it looks and don't see how that's pathetic.
 
I drive with my headlights, fogs, inside lights, a green neon light inside and rear back up lights on all the time...day or night. argue2 j/k
I actually do drive with the fogs and headlights..it looks better esp with my xenon heads and fogs. And I think it does help the more light u have on the road the better (barring ur driving with brights against incoming traffic). This was proven to me yesterday after driving on a side road. I was taking a turn and when i came out of it I saw about 5 deer hanging out next to the road. The fogs do provide an advantage.
 
I drive in the "Italian" position, seat as low as possible, leaned back and steering extended.

I use my lights when it is dark and my fogs when it is foggy or raining.

Oh, I drive like a bat out of hell.

My motto is this:
If you are driving slower than me you are an idiot. If you are driving faster than me you are insane. :bow:
 
I don't usually have the fogs on because they don't match the HID's. I have the seat all the way back(6'3"), the wheel all the way in (don't like sitting too close to it). I use the SST every now and thenor when I'm bored, but mainly just the Auto.

I drive with every possible light on at any time during the day/night :). I also have my 3000 watt system on full blast with my limo tinted windows down just a crack to allow the sound to rattle your mirrors but still block visibility inside my car so you can't see me staring or doing whatever motion i can with my hands. I also drive close enough to the car infront of me so that i can see my angel eyes in the reflection. Seat all the way back and steering wheel back aswell.

^ LOL ^

I'm always fiddling with the steering wheel settings... when it's low enough to drive with my knees then I can't see the speedo... high enough to see the speedo then I can't drive with my knees while eating and talking on my cell phone.

I drive the streets in D4 and only shift to D5 when I'm consistently over 55... usually on the freeway on ramp. This is a habit formed from driving another fine FoMoCo product with a weak overdrive assembly, I figure every hunting shift that it doesn't do in and out of OD at 45 mph is one more that I might get out of it later.

When I'm stuck in traffic I use the SST and lock it in 3rd or 4th depending on the average speed of the traffic because when in D4 or D5 the constant 1-2-3 shifting with minimal throttle input feels like I'm driving a tractor. :Bang

Well Itsnotmydaddys, I drive with the fogs and the side lights on at dusk. But I have the sylvania lights bright whites and the fogs don't match. So what to do? I haven't seen your pics, yet so I don't know when to HONK at ya. "SHOW ME"
