Canadian Crossfires have day time running lights that come on automatically when the car is put in drive and stay on until the ignition is turned off. Not quite sure as I have US lights on my car now, but they were on my other one, how soon we forget.
DTRL's are all lights, except the high beams do not work although they can be flashed.

Both my cars have DRL's (Limited and SRT) and have an auto delay function that turns them on including fogs when you leave the car and close the door. The delay is not adjustable.

I don't have DRL's but if I am running my lights and go to park, the driving lights come on for a while when I hit the fob to lock the car. This is normal...

In many ways, the Crossfire is a throwback to pre 2000 cars :

1. no auto headlights ( my 2002 Concorde Limited has that )
2. only one speed intermittent wipers ( my Concorde has infinite delay )
3. Manually adjustable drivers seat ( Concord remembers 2 different drivers )
4. Only fogs light up when car is shutoff at night, and time period is non-adjustable ( .....Concorde leaves headlights on, and time period is adjustable )
5. No tilt steering wheel ( Concorde has that )
6. no compass display ( yes, again, Concorde has that )

Concorde also has outside mirror memory and preset radio memory for 2 drivers, along with auto-dim interior rear view mirror. ( 2004 Xfire only )

On the PLUS side :
Crossfire is much more attractive car, and it has the flippy wing thing .....

My '93 Concorde and '94 LHS had all those except the seat memory. Great cars I found, with a few well known problems. I ran both cars until they were basically worn out. I should have looked after them better.
My '07 300 is a piece of crap, no comparison. I do not think I'll ever buy another Chrysler.

My two Crossfires have cost me exactly $1 to repair apart from $200 fixing non existent problems I thought I had.

Mind you I have only put a little less than 40,000 kilometers total on the Crossfires.
