RE: Automatic Headlights?
Nevermind about the driving lights. They are not on, but I think i read something about them them being on at 50% in the driver manual. That is where i got the info on the 8 min timer on the headlights if left on.

OMG!
That is friggin funny!
You know someone should add that fact to the top of the page or at least warn us when we first join the forum. You are not the first to experience that the hard way (it happened to me too) but every time someone says that I think about the first (couple) times I did it and I wind up blowing something (usually beer) out my nose.
That is a laugh riot!
I laugh every time I think about it. Hope you got leather seats!
I found out last night that if you put it in reverse with the door open the horn honks. Scared the s#it out of me ...

I have an 06 and there are no DRL's. Either on or off. I dont like the drl's cuz when i leave for work early in the morning they shine in all the neighbors windows. got to keep the neighbors happy!

RE: Automatic Headlights?
I can confirm the DRLs for US trucks. I brought my 06 2500 to have the dealer turn the Power Delay feature (where you have power to the radio and accessories after the ignition is turned off, until a door is open or a timer expires) and found they also turned the DRLs on. It confused the hell out of me at first because there is not associated dash light in the US version that tells you DRLs are on. I could tell because the DRLs are at about half the brightness of your low beams.
Another funny item is when you use a turn signal, the DRL beam goes off on which ever side the turn signal is on. He he. I do like that the DRLs turn on only in R or D21 (for us Automatic Wimps).

RE: Automatic Headlights?
I had not looked to see that the head lights flash with the turn signal on so will have to go look the next time I go some place. Yes I had for gotten to say the DRL's only came on in D and or R for those who have the Auto trans.
