Depends who you ask. I know there are some who have pulled the fuse and removed the bulb, some that swear by it being the best thing ever. I am lifted on 34" mud tires, so I drive slow anyway, and ABS is horrible on the trail, I want it to pile up mud and dirt in front of the tires. I am sure there are others that will throw in their 2 cents on the advantages of it, but IMHO, its not worth spending the money to repair/maintain.
