To say my opinion is BS isn't harsh or true, it's just uninformed and rude.

I trust the OP, who was actually THERE and apparently exerienced, to know when fog lights would have helped.
I have often encountered fog on sections of I5 so thick/dense that I pulled into a rest area to wait for improved conditions. Landing with a ground fog over a runway is no fun either, good vision of the runway right up to almost touchdown.
Rain so heavy near Ford Smith and into OK that several roadside stops were made.

Do you say that after drinking too much also? Not trying to provoke anyone here, trust me, but sometimes leaving the car behind is a better idea. If you can't see where you are going leaving the car in a parking lot is cheaper than a car accident. I also agree, however, that the car should have fog lights being that it is a problem.

Porsche obviously feels that fog lights aren't necessary if you have Bi-Xenons. I'm simply not buying the cost saving theory about a company that has historically valued proper lighting very highly. Besides, my experience with having both fogs and Bi-Xenons on the same vehicle bears out Porsche's POV. Clearly you and others disagree. Fine. That's why we have discussion boards where we can sort out these topics that are so highly important that we start insulting each other.
