I used to get flashed constantly in my 2013 F-150 with HID's, but I've yet to get flashed once in this truck with LED's.

Another night drive and multiple oncoming vehicles flashing brights. We live in the country and this may be a different experience than urban people are having. I pulled over in a dark area walked a ways in front of my truck and damn those lights are bright and they look like I have them on bright. I think the Ford engineering folks need to address the issue and come up with a fix.

All I have is what was included "jewel effect headlights" whatever the heck that means. I think the issue may be the separation between upper and lower lens giving oncoming traffic what looks light brights on. Plus they are very white and bright.
