An actual Question from a new car buyer.. Found at an automotive forum..

__________________________________________________________________________

I got my car today and honestly, I love EVERYTHING about it. No problems what so ever, knock on wood. Brakes are perfect, no odd noises, car handles beautifully. The only thing I noticed is that even at a complete stop, the tachometer needle is never at 0 or close to 0 RPMs. At a complete stop, the needle's just under 1. Is this normal?

This had me LMAO and thought I'd share it.. :)

You'ld be amazed by some of the dambassed questions people come up with when it comes to cars. Not long ago, we had a woman ask if we could turn up the volume for her turn signal clicker :)

Sounds like he is describing the speedometer. Probably not stupid just used the wrong word.
