Here is a new one. I didn't think stealing headlights would be easier or faster than wheels. Maybe because headlights are easier to sell on the internet?

Someone can buy wheels from lots of places if all they want in a replacement wheel or even lots of places for a wheel that's an improvement. Price some of the headlight stuff you can only get through a dealer. For a while people have been complaining about how difficult it is to change headlights. Guess someone made it easier, too easy and the only place you get a new one is the dealership. Gone are the days of buying a new headlight at an auto parts store and your option being a round or square one. Even the replacement bulb ones aren't so easy anymore.

That's Porsche pricing and availability.

I can get aftermarket lights for my vehicles, and one is new.

Sorry I am a Dodge Ram guy *shrug*. I take the same approach with motherboard manufacturers, get a good one and stick with that brand until they fuck me then choose another.

Relative has a 3500 Cummins and likes it, tows a 13k lb 5th wheel all summer with it. I only have a 1500, mostly I find the overall package and interior to be comfortable since it has a pretty solid lineage. I've towed cross country with it several times and taken it off road.

Again, I'm sure the Ford and Chevy are popular for a reason, I just haven't had the need to switch.

Cummins just got nailed with a massive fine and might have to recall trucks going back years to detune the engines or figure out something to get the exhaust down where the government wants, including brand new models. I have a 2023 Ram 2500 with the 6.4L gas, but would likely look at a Duramax if I needed a diesel right now.

What’s the general consensus on sunroofs?
Click to expand...

Terrible for longevity. Only worth it if you use it a lot. Also a lot of them are terrible anyway, I wouldn't bother for most vehicles.

Sunroofs are alright if you live somewhere without too much sun and park in a garage/never under trees. Open air feeling without the hassle of a convertible, more so for cars with a lower belt-line.

Stupid if you aren't going to have it open in good weather, and in trucks/suvs.

Yeah I agree. I don’t want a sunroof but only thing on lot spec’d the way I like has it. Debating if it’s worth putting an order in for one without. Never ever use that shit in Florida.

Thats not what they're doing here though, you don't buy a complete headlight enclosure for a bulb. These are for wrecked cars to replace the lights (so they're stealing them to sell to shops to repair with "used" parts)... I can't even remember the last light bulb I bought for a car. HID lights since the early 2000's basically never blow out and all the other lights have been LED's forever. What cars are you needing bulbs for?
