I got this in an email a few weeks ago. As the cars get smarter the drivers get dumber.

If anyone thinks this is a joke, rest assured it is not.
We'd recently purchased a new Porsche, and it warns against drinking the coolant.
My question? If a person is so ignorant as to think it's okay to drink coolant, is that person intelligent enough to read the warning?

No.


You also need a license to fish but not to have children.

They will just ride the bus or call Uber. Most don't want to drive their own car or even own a car. Seeing how people drive around in our town many should not even own a car. Most cars seem to have "broken" turn signals and have no speedometer.
 
I rode in a new GMC recently. All of the gauges were on digital screens. There were no knobs or buttons anywhere. File under the sad but true category. It was repulsive.
 
Boy oh boy, can I ever relate to your statement ! ! Also, if you have to follow that close, why didn't you leave for work earlier in the day? You will not get there quicker by"drafting" on my bumper !
 
America has changed in a very dramatic and unprecedented way since the 1960s. The people the old manuals were written for are still here, just in lesser numbers.
 
You can lead a man to ponder,
But you can’t make him think.


True story;

We were changing the engine on a semi tractor,
Uncrated the new engine and this was written on the PAPER info tag zip tied to the side of the engine;

“DO NOT LIFT ENGINE BY THIS TAG”

So yes, someone was that stupid!
