These young 'uns

Its no wonder the state of the art in automotive engineering advances so slowly. Every new generation thinks the previous one doesn't know anything, so they spend half their lives making the same mistakes over and over again, thinking that no one else could possibly have ever tried something before. When you try to help them out, you get this:

somebody came up with that idea so people could run ethanol in a car not designed for it because to run E85 you need to make the fuel richer so they can put that in their pipe and smoke it. I am 18 by the way so we aren't all that way please don't lump us together.

You're right, sorry 'bout that! Sometimes us oldtimers forget, too.

People have to learn from their own mistakes. That is true in life, not just cars. You have to let them and let them reap the rewards and suffer the consequences.

Every teenage generation of past and present have thought and those of years to come will also think they know it all. Our parents as teenagers did, we did, our kids did or will and their kids will and so on and so on. If your or any one else's parents were to get on here, and were asked if so and so thought they knew it all, at any point and time, all of our parents would say, why yes, all teenagers think they do. You know I'm right. There is that point in everyones life this happens, it's almost as if it is a right of passage. LOL
