While it's cool and produces more light and all, the glare for oncoming traffic that is caused by putting an HID bulb into a stock reflector/housing for a non-HID vehicle is atrocious.

They are not HID bulbs! It is the complete system. I could not agree with you more about those idiots that do not take the time to correctly aim their headlights. And yes, they are aimed down and inward.
So many people do not take the time to correctly adjust their headlights when they get their vehicles back from bodyshop repairs. That too is annoying!
I look at this as a safety equipment upgrade. Just like when I changed the seat beats out to three point harness (shoulder belts). Or, changing out the brakes to larger SSBC disc brakes and upgrading the rear drums to discs in the process. Even though I do not drive this truck a lot, I want to be safe when I get the chance to enjoy taking it out for a spin.
FYI: On Saturday October 21st from 3pm until midnight, I will have the truck on display at a show in the Trademark Building of the MS Fairgrounds in Jackson, MS. For those that are interrested in getting a closer look.
