Default Hella=Rover, KC=Jeep?

So, I've held this opinion for a very long time; and after vast observation have come to a general consensus.

Hella Auxiliary lights are for the classy, off road capable, Land Rovers.

KC Auxiliary lights are for redneck, mud-loving Chevys, Fords, and Jeeps.

Now, not asking for advice on what to buy; just a good discussion of this comparison. I believe everyone can agree where I'm at, right?

Oh the heavenly Lightforces, I haven't even seen them in action but want them sooo bad. They're definitely worth the money I'm sure

As long as they aren't covered with the KC "smiley face" logo covers, we may let you slide...

have heard many good things about hella hid and will be fitting those also eventually oh an don't forget the new kc pods= da shiz if wanna pay the money i believe most race teams are now moving to them, or so iv heard, cant remember the light force and hella candle power and heat rating but heard great things about them. the new kc pods carbon fiber i believe correct me if im wrong but there putting off like 1,200,00Cp, however designed for high speeds of over 120mph and like 1,100$ may b slight overkill, but way sweet if price is no issue. So with that being said, im not so sure u can say that anymore seeing how they are the farthest advanced offroad lighting systems available, i think?? please correct me if im wrong. however there is no smiley faces.........on my wishlist thats for sure. kc carbon fiber pod definattely worthy of my lr
