Explorer DRLs

I live outside of Philadelphia. Recently I have seen about a half dozen or so 02 and newer (i'm guessing) explorers with just the Fog lights on during the day. Is this ford's version of DRLs for the explorer?

Just got back from vacation and saw your post.

On my '04 Explorer I can't run the foggers by themselves. I think there was a post awhile back about modifying the headlight switch to do this, but don't remember where it was.

Ford's DRL System for my '04 is a module (over $100) that runs the headlights at 75% power - dealer install is recommended.

I thought they used the headlights as DRL's, I just thought it was weird to see a few that have the same. Thanks!!!

Yeah, it would be nice to run the foggers as DRL's - if I find that post I'll let you know.
