Part of that extra light when turning the corner is an extra light that comes on when the blinker is turned on or when the steering wheel is turned a certain amount.

I don't care about the extra light that comes from when operating at a low speed when the fog lights are not switched on. Saying the lights don't rotate is false; that is what I was responding to. "The 2021 Ram 2500 offers an available Class-Exclusive Adaptive Forward Lighting System( Disclosure1) with crisp LED lighting. The lamps turn up to 15 degrees to help with nighttime visibility."

I'm not saying you're wrong or that the lights don't rotate, just pointing out there is an extra light that comes on in the instances I described that adds a lot of the light shown in the link you posted.

I'll cover up the extra light and see if I can tell the lights are rotating next time. I'm only a couple hundred miles in on a '21 with only 2 nighttime drives. The rotating headlights haven't been noticeable so far compared to the extra lights.

I had the backflip, I was not really impressed with it. It kept getting "dinged" on the top of it. It was also easy to break into with a coat hanger as well (which was a relief to me at the time). Found another brand that was almost the same price that I loved. Transferring it from my 2020 to my 2022. Other than the cosmetics on the top after some wear, it was a good cover.

Laramie has the light that engages at slow speed as you are speaking of. LImited and I believe Longhorn have adaptive lighting that adjusts with steering up to 15 degrees.

2014 Ram 1500 Longhorn (sold)
2019 Ram 1500 Limited (sold)
2020 Ram 2500 Laramie (driving)
2022 Ram 2500 Limited (on order)

No I'm not being serious. It was in jest. I also don't like squatters, wheels that stick out way past the fender, huge rims with rubber bands or anything else considered "awesome" now

Whew, kinda thought so but you never know anymore, lol. I like the debadged look too!

The “extra light” that comes on when turning, or using the turn signal under a certain speed, is one of the fog lights, and is called cornering lights. All 2019+ HD Rams that have fog lights, regardless of trim level, have this feature. It only works when the fog lights are not on.
The headlights used on limiteds, Longhorns, and PW 75th (level 3 for 2022) have the adaptive front lighting system. The bi-function projectors in the housings are on stepper motors, and will swivel 15 degrees to the left or right at any speed above ~5 mph. There is a setting in the radio to turn the adaptive lights on or off (steering directed lights). There is no setting, or way, to turn of the cornering lights if equipped with fog lights (except to have the fog lights on).

Any of you considering debadging your new truck. I like a nice clean look without decals. I am also considering taking off the Laramie badge because of the way it looks. For sure will pull dealer badging if they put it on.

I debadged my current 2018 truck, I like the clean look. Just wish the emblems on the hood wasn't on the new models, no way of getting rid of those ones.

One issue with the bakflip MX4 and having RamBoxes is that you have to remove the utility rails. I've been eyeing the LoMax since it integrates with the utility rail. Downside is the retaining system to keep the cover flipped up sucks; you have to adhere mounts on your cab.

I had a bakflip mx4 on my 2020 1500 big horn and im pretty sure the only reason you take the utility rails off to put a gasket on the backside to prevet water, then the rail goes back on. Then the cover slides into the top rim of the rail. Could have changed since then but thats what i remember. Pretty sure i will be going with the lopro x15
