I haven't followed all the links to other sites so this might have been covered allready. The only reason I've heard arguing against DRLs is it makes it more difficult to determine the oncoming vehicle's distance and speed. They appear closer with lights on.

I turned mine off when summer began but will likely turn them back on as the days become more grey. Around here I've noticed about 2/3 of the cars don't run them.
