This question has been asked many times. The biggest difference you will find with a true DRL vs. "leaving your lights on" is a true DRL DOES NOT illuminate at 100%. If you were to leave your lights on all the time, you would need to replace your bulbs sooner. Also, you need to realize that by leaving your lights on, you will also illuminate the tail lights (front and rear). So there will be more bulbs for you to replace sooner than if you had true DRL. If someone else has other reasons to go to a true DRL please expand on this post.
