Description of the problem	The high beam headlights, as installed from the factory and properly adjusted, are inadequate for driving on dark country roads at night, in the absence of ambient lighting from street and yard lights. The light is cast well down the road, but there is too little light spread to the shoulders of the road, making pedestrians and animals difficult to see if they are not directly in the roadway. I live in a rural area with many peach orchards and pastures, therefore there are often few, if any, street or yard lights to provide any ambient lighting. Also, many of the roads in the area have neither painted lines nor reflectors to help mark the path of travel at night. If there are hills and curves, the light pattern and output of the factory installed lights on my 2014 gmc sierra make it difficult to distinguish unmarked pavement from the grass on the shoulders of the road. All of these shortcomings are magnified when roads are wet and/or it is raining or otherwise inclement weather. I approached my dealer here in spartanburg, sc, about a remedy for the inadequate headlights, but the representative was dismissive and did not follow-up.
