Default 2005 Ram High Beam Issues ???

Although I'm new to this site, I once owned a 95 Ram and liked it very much but I heard some pretty bad things about the 01 Rams when I was ready to replace the 95. Anyway, I just purchased a 2005 5.7 Hemi and I don't like the Headlights on High Beam. They really light up on both sides of the road but do not extend out in front much at all. Has anyone else had this issue before ??
Thanks

I wasn't very pleased with the performance of either the hi or low beams out of the stocker headlights right from the start when I purchased my '04 new off the lot. Put a set of Sylvania Silverstar bulbs in when the truck was less than 3 months old. Much better...
