Did your vehicle come with a set of Ford truck fog lights? If it did not, you are missing out on an extremely beneficial accessory. You may have noticed that your stock halogen headlamps, while they are okay for driving in pleasant weather, do not quite make the grade when you are trying to see your way through fog, rain, or snow, particularly at night. However, as the name suggests, truck fog lights provide you with superior visibility during inclement weather.
How do they do this? First, Ford truck fog lights are two to three times brighter than stock halogen headlights. You may think this presents a problem in that you could blind other drivers, but truck fog lights are located beneath your regular headlights on your front end, so they do not shine in other drivers’ faces.
Second, the lower location of fog lights gives them the edge over regular headlights during lousy weather. Since they are closer to the ground, they illuminate the road that is right in front and to the sides of your vehicle, rather than a point somewhere out in front of you. Not only does this help you see the road you are driving on, instead of the road that is coming up, but it also ensures that more light actually reaches the pavement. When light shines through moisture in the air, such as rain, snow, and fog, it is diffused and weakened. Ford truck fog lights have a shorter distance to travel before they reflect from the road, so they are not as scattered.If you want to improve your visibility at night and during bad weather, browse our extensive online catalogue and pick up a set of truck fog lights today.
