Default Do I have a cracked headlight ?

One head light is allways fogged up and was wondering if there was a crack or not ?
The truck has been sitting a couple oh hours now and the one light is still fogged.

It could be that someone installed or replaced a headlamp bulb on a very humid day, and the humid air got into the headlight while it wasn't sealed. On a dry day, remove the headlight, take the bulbs out of it, blow a hair dryer into the bulb holes for a few minutes to dry it out, and then put the bulbs back. That should seal the headlight. If the humidity returns, you either have a crack, or the headlight isn't properly sealed.
