Best Headlights (Muleman was right)

The Prius has better headlights than the BMW.
Muleman was right all along.
Bill must be sitting up in Heaven laughing at those in their expensive German cars.
The LED headlights in the top trim level Toyota Prius v — the only one of 31
models tested to get the "good" rating — were able to illuminate a straight roadway sufficiently to see a pedestrian, bicyclist or obstacle up to 387 feet ahead. At that distance, the vehicle could be traveling up to 70 mph and still have time to stop.
But halogen headlights in the BMW 3 series, the worst-rated ones, were able to illuminate only 128 feet ahead. At that distance, the vehicle couldn't be traveling at more than 35 mph and still have time to stop, according to the study.

Those must be the ones that leave "spots" in my eyes at night coming from the other direction.

My wife has the HID lamps in her car. They shine right down the road in good shape but I don't think they do the drivers coming at you any favors. Been flipped off with the high beams more than a few times, yet the Hyundai dealer says they are adjusted perfectly. It's a very white light at 6000K so maybe that has something to do with it.

I dunno.
