... see how many people are idiots for driving with their fog lights on. ...
Isn't that a bit over the top? Who/what are they hurting by using their foglights? And why are they idiots?

Foglights are useless, from what I heard: xeno lights are enough to see through the fog.
Today E60 has "night vision" to see better than with foglights

I hate fog logs. No wait, I love fog lights. I love driving with my fog lights. People that drive with their fog lights on during the day are idiots. Driving during the day with fog lights is cool. Yeah, yeah! Fog lights are stupid. What are fog lights? What's fog? What's light? MEOW!

PS - I had the best Spicy Tuna Hand Roll for lunch today. The best I tell ya!

I was curious if anyone knew the answer to this as I didnt see anything when I did a search....

Does anyone know why the M-cars do not come with fog lights? Personally i think cars with fogs look better, and for performance you'd think you want the extra lights for those type driving conditions, so why no fogs on the M's???????

Who needs the fog lights and the LCI has the Day Lights.

The Xenons do the job.

It was a joke knucklehead. Do you remember the Fog Light thread a while back? People got so crazy about those that drive with them on when there's no fog out. It was the best thread ever. People were ripping on each other left and right. Anyway, I was just making a joke and trying to stir stuff up again.
