Over the last 30 years, right around the start of 1970, the rear end of the car was and still is considered a very important part of the vehicle, you can sit on the truck, put stuff in the truck, advertise beliefs and jokes through the use of bumper stickers and show other drivers who you are.
The taillights of are crucial in both the design of the car and the laws that go with what is acceptable and against the law in the driving world, at least in North America.
Popular car-enthusiast site Jalopniks editors have discussed the variations of taillights, who does it better and what designs work vs. old or now unconventional ways to show drivers behind you your stopping.
Anyways, in the more recent models, car manufacturers have been utilizing the wasted space in the rear, and are putting what I call " bar tail lights" in place of little "stud " lights.

| Perfect example of "stud" brake lights, nothing against the Lotus Elise, just the tiny size of the lights. |
As cars are becoming more advanced to benefit humans need to pass a task off the something that can do it for them, cars, like people, are imitating the better one the be like that one.
I really like the "bar tail lights", from the middle 80's to 2015 concepts, the car looks more complete, and overall better with a stream of red LED tapered around the rear apposed to two segregated orange and red boxes on opposite sides of the truck lock.
Here is the un-complete list of cars that fit my interest in long, LED, sexy, futuristic break lights.
(Again, the years of these cars range from the 70's to concept cars of tomorrow.)
Over that last few years or so, Chrysler Group has made dodge a sleek, exciting brand for all consumers, and a unified brand indeed, each vehicle rear is designed to look the same, which in this case is a great thing, and inspired me to write this article.
Here are the dodge vehicles that sport the nature of this article:
 |
| 2010-14 Dodge Charger |
 |
| 2013-... Dodge Durango |
 |
| 2010-14 Dodge Challenger |
 |
| 2013-... Dodge Dart |
Then there are more luxurious, prestigious cars that fit the category of uniform tail lights:
 |
| 2015 Acura NSX |
 |
| 2014 Mercedes-Benz Coupe SUV concept |
 |
| 2015 Porsche 911 (Targa) |
 |
2016 Porsche Panamera GTS

The new 2015 Audi A3 Quattro has that neatest advancement to Porsche designed rear spoiler that automatically lifts at a certain speed, now many manufacturers are using the technology, yet Audi has automatic flashing censer lights when braking at high speeds.
