90+% of asian cars didn't have lights on during this morning's commute when it's gloomy and raining. amongst the tens(possibly 100s) of Toyota's i saw, only ONE had lights on.
some are even quipped with Automatic light, so i'm not sure why it's not linked to windshield wipers nor sense that it's dark enough for lights to be on. (Santa Fe)
100% of GM cars had lights on. automatic headlight FTW. this is quite possibly the only thing i admire about GM. .... (and corvette)
