What's With Those DC Dimtwits??

[Un-Hemi]

Howcum the DC Cosmetic Factory Weenies decided to read out the tachometer in 125 RPM increments, rather than 100 RPM?? That's just about as rational as our Nav Canada Aviation Weather Nerds reading sky cover in eighths rather than tenths. "yes, sir, the cloud cover is 4/8ths this morning. " #ad
Must be some subversive foreign influence. Makes me REEEAAALLLLLLYYY work to stretch my intellect..... #ad
Now, is that 1700RPM? No, it's 1500+125+125=1750RPM. It's distracting! #ad
"now, now, Mr Glover, take two fourths and call me in the morning. " GRRRRRRR! #ad

Tommy, I agree completely on the tach scale. Get in between two of those lines for some real mental aerobics!

I can't even begin to think of a reason, good or bad, for the tach. markings. It took me a day or so to really notice it on my truck. I just laughed and shook my head.

The Gauges were designed by Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble. They only have three fingers. Think about it. #ad
