Driving vs Spot vs 7in Combo — what works best on the Ranger?

[AUXITO]

What's up, Ranger crew?

When the sun goes down and you're still on the job site, deep on a forest service road, or set up at camp, having the right lights isn't just a luxury—it's a necessity.
Let's talk light setups Today. Everyone has their preference, and we want to hear yours.

The Core Questions for a Truck Owner:
Size & Beam Pattern: What's your workhorse? The focused intensity of 3.5-inch pods for seeing down the trail? The balanced output of 4.5-inch lights? Or the commanding presence and versatility of a classic 7-inch combo bar?
Mounting & Mixing: Where does your ideal setup live? On a bull bar? A grille guard? A roof-mounted light bar? A set of A-pillar ditch lights? How do you combine beams to cover all your bases—maybe spots for distance and wide driving patterns for the periphery?

Sneak Peek: New Lights Incoming!
This isn't just a chat—it's your chance to influence what's coming next. We're stoked to announce we're launching FIVE new heavy-duty auxiliary lights, built to handle everything you throw at your Ranger.

The upcoming lineup:
3.5-inch Spot Beam
3.5-inch Driving Beam
4.5-inch Spot Beam
4.5-inch Driving Beam
7-inch Combination Beam (Spot + Flood Combo)

And because we know your needs vary, every single model will be available in your choice of 3000K Yellow or 6000K White.

Tell us why you voted the way you did. Are you lighting up trails, checking fence lines, or needing better visibility on dusty job site roads? We want to know! Pictures of your current lighting setup are always awesome to see.

I like my 5" Combo Spot/Drivers with DRLs & Turn Signals. They look really cool at night.

They saved my ass the just 2 nights ago. I was driving through an intersection. There was a car parked at the intersection facing me (waiting for her turn to turn left). I could see her creeping forward debating whether to turn in front of me or not. If she had turned in front of me there would have been an ugly head-on collision. I have the remote control for my lights taped to the side of my gear shifter. I was able to turn them on in time to convince her to stop & wait. I also enjoy lighting up my entire street at night. These things are powerful.

3” ditch lights and 26” light bar on the grille guard. Went with white, not sure what kelvin they are, probably 3000 I’d guess. Also have 3” flush mount rear bumper lights. I use them more for camping and driving around the property than anything. Yellow might’ve been better for the ditch lights but that was an afterthought. I don’t offroad enough for that to be an issue. The stock headlights seem to cut through dust well enough on their own.

Rough Country ditch lights and driving lights.

They're small but very effective and do the job. Installation credit for the new grill and lights goes to the team at Lone Star Conversions in Sherman, TX.
Now I just have to wait for Sid @Msfitoy to chime in and blow this out of the water lol.

I have both floods & spots and they're wired to the same switch.
