You took the time to screen cap that, edit it down in paint, come to /o/, start a thread over this guys opinion?

Talk about a generation of cry babies lol

Get with the times, grandpa

mate you're on /o/ you should be used to people being retarded
why single this guy out because of his age?

You can take a screenshot of a selected area. I can even do it on my phone.

This isn't 2004.

Time to learn how to use a computer Grandpa.

He sounds a lot like the Luddites in the modern car/sour grapes threads to be honest family.

Probably spends all day screencapping and posting dodge vs ford vs chevy memes on Facebook from his smartphone his daughter taught him to use. Pay him no mind, boomers are no longer a majority and shirk more every day.

I'm kinda optimistic and hope that people on /o/ are only pretending to be retarded

Who the fuck still uses paint?

He's right about infotainment being bad but that's about it

No you fucking mongoloid it's the Snipping Tool, found in just about every Windows operating system out there today.

Apple users can hit Command + Shift + 4 and you can snip whatever's on the current page.

>>14298505

Every computer running Windows has it.

oh okay, never bothered to look
can't they put it somewhere you'd see, it these bill gates cunts?

I don't has it xd

Holy shit you are a boomer

Plastic panels suck ass, and electronic nannies ruin my driving experience. Crumple zones I'll give you though.

daily reminder; you guys are filthy cringy millennials

>>14298646
ABS and traction control ruin your driving experience? How about tech that let's your car follow the car in front in heavy traffic?

>>14298682

These things are for people that can't drive.

>raw power
This literally means nothing, and the REAL whp of those old cars was about half of what they advertised. Modern cars are much more powerful
>more safe
LOLOLOOOL
>plastic
Old cars were filled to the fucking brim with plastic. It's how cars are made. They also use plastic bumpers etc. because they are cheaper to replace and weight much less.
>electronics
Only idiots complain about this. Cars handled like garbage years ago. Production cars were unreliable as fuck and garbage. We look back fondly now because only pristine examples are still around and MOST have been updated with modern stuff.

>hurrr everything is worse now!

>>14298704
My car doesn't have airbags.

>>14298727
Drivers shouldn't need these aids because they should be driving to the conditions rather than using them as a crutch.

>>14298745
This may be the dumbest thing I have ever heard.
EVERY driver can slip in the snow. EVERY driver can slip in the rain. EVERY driver can lock up brakes. Are you retarded? Even race car drivers wreck all the time. You are seriously stupid. Stop making bad excuses because

>>14298772
They were also measured differently and they only measured the motor stripped down without accessories anything they could do to maximize advertised power

>>14298759
I wasn't making excuses for old technology. I was just saying that if you need ABS and Traction control then you're a shit driver.

You lock the brakes because something surprising happened. You wouldn't lock the brakes if you were looking more than 30 feet ahead. Defensive driving courses exist for a reason.

It's incredibly difficult to slip in the rain unless you decide to hit a puddle at 60mph or take a corner too fast.

traction control and abs wont help

as above, although traction control will keep you from breaking traction in easy situations

every driver can learn to brake properly. lead footing with abs wont save you

>>14298646
Why do plastic panels suck? Because you can't bang dents out of them if you crash?

>nannies ruin my driving experience
You can turn them off in any sports car. And thank fuck we have them with the average idiot on the road.

>This literally means nothing, and the REAL whp of those old cars was about half of what they advertised
(Citation Very Needed)

>>14302602
Old engines were rated with insane octane gas, insane compression ratios, open headers, and literally nothing on the engine that didn't help it go. No fan, no alternator, etc.

Then they make it sensible and put it in the car.

SAE gross ratings versus net.

>>14302619
yep

the massive power drop off in the 70s wasnt because muh smog. well partly, but also because the engines had to be rated properly.

>>14302633
Forty years after the end of the “classic” muscle car era, there is still some confusion over horsepower ratings, especially how they relate to today’s cars. Let’s try to clear it up.

Prior to 1972, American carmakers used the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) “gross” measurement of horsepower. Gross meant the figure was taken from an engine running on a test stand, with no air cleaner assembly, accessories or exhaust system connected.

By 1971, carmakers began reducing compression in many engines in order to meet upcoming emissions requirements and to use unleaded fuel. General Motors and Chrysler began advertising both gross and SAE net figures in 1971, derived from an engine tested with air cleaner assembly, accessories or exhaust system connected.

The net ratings, which were applied across the board for 1972, must have been a shock to some customers. Suddenly, muscle cars appeared to lose 100 hp or more.

For example, the Corvette’s optional LT-1 350 cu. in. small block V-8 had 370 gross hp in 1970 (with 11:1 compression), then a 330 hp gross rating (with 9:1 compression) for 1971-1972 with a 255 hp net rating. The mighty Chrysler 426 cu. in. Hemi kept its high compression and 425 hp gross rating for 1971 and showed 350 net hp.

Jim Campisano, editorial director of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords and Super Chevy magazines, has revisited the classic muscle car horsepower topic numerous times over the years. The magazines have compared old and new muscle cars and have also put classic models on a chassis dynamometer to record rear-wheel horsepower.

“Rear wheel horsepower was at least 30 percent lower than the reported gross figure, i

Not that guy, but come the fuck on. This is shit you should know by now.

>Prior to the 1972 model year, American automakers rated and advertised their engines in brake horsepower (bhp), frequently referred to as SAE gross horsepower, because it was measured in accord with the protocols defined in SAE standards J245 and J1995. As with other brake horsepower test protocols, SAE gross hp was measured using a stock test engine, without accessories (such as dynamo/alternator, radiator fan, water pump),[26] and sometimes fitted with long tube test headers in lieu of the OEM exhaust manifolds. The atmospheric correction standards for barometric pressure, humidity and temperature for testing were relatively idealistic.
