My friend has a Texas Edition that is not Platinum or Limited and he has Auto headlights. Frankly I am very disappointed mine does not have it. After owning Chevy's for years and having that feature and then going to a truck without it, SUX!

I'm willing to pay to get it added if anyone has any info on it.

I'd be willing to pay to *not* have auto headlights. Lights that are keyed, that is, turn off if the key is out, is great. Otherwise, I hate auto headlights. With a passion. I bet 99% of the vehicles I see on the road today, when it's overcast, raining, snowing, foggy,what-have-you, and don't have their headlights on, is because "it's automatic, they'll turn on when necessary." Yeah right. Maybe they aren't so bad today, but is it really so hard to just turn them on manually?

[I will admit to being "that idiot" not that long ago in our Camry. Had been driving all day, was driving into the night, heavy traffic. The Camry has one of those late model displays, so the dashboard back lighting is always on. Ooops. My only excuse is that I might drive that car once/month. I blame the dashboard, not me... sure.]

I dont know what trucks you have been in, but Chevy's have day time running lights (you can turn them off if you choose to) so when it's foggy, snowing etc you can always see their lights. Also, maybe those cars you see that dont have their headlights on when its in those conditions do not have auto headlights. All of mine switch from day time running lights to regular headlights by them selves when it gets foggy, rainy, or for any low light condition.

I've never heard a single person complain about auto headlights, and have heard allot of people mention how they liked them when they get a car/truck/rental that has them installed when they dont have them in their own vehicle. Set it and forget it man.

BTW..you can always choose to turn on/off your headlights manually if you so desire even when you have the auto headlights. The auto is just another option on the switch, so you wouldnt have to pay to not have it.

i just leave mine on at all times, they do have auto shut off

I've left mine on too, the problem becomes when I'm trying to look at the radio in the middle of the day and cant make anything out because the headlights are on and the back lights are dimmed. I dont know how many times I have hit my AC button because I cant see that the green indicator light on the switch is on or off.
