I used it when I first got my vette. Then after reading about the headlight gears I decided to turn off and save the gears. Turned off the driver 1 & 2 memory stuff also.

Don't use it on the 'vette, everything else yes.

I do, but then again, the previous owner converted the headlights to fixed so that takes away the gear worries. It is a nice feature, but I'm not sure if i would use it if I still had the pop ups on the car. They should have factored in some type of delay for the ones that keep it in the garage so they wouldn't turn on every time you started the car. I'm guessing a lot of you would use it then

I gave up on it a long time ago. Like the others I didn't like the lights popping up in the garage and then staying up for the first few minutes of any trip. Add to that the inevitable headlight gear failure and it had to be switched off.
In any event I prefer to have manual control over my headlights. I often just go to park and drive with the headlights down and the fog lights on.

The only reason I have mine turned off is to save the gears. I don't need the buckets going up everytime I start the car since it is garaged. Also I do like to drive with just the fogs on at dusk as I wouldnt be able to with the sentinel on.
