What Pisses You Off The MOST About Modern Car Culture?

[freeform911]

All I have to add to this is squatted truck owners need to be lobotomized

I'm in South Carolina where squatty trucks are EVERYWHERE (Myrtle Beach). The scariest thing is that a lot of them can't see over the hood to even drive them. We've had quite a few come into the shop that actually drive using a front mounted camera hooked to the radio.

I believe that is referred to as..
The Carolina fag sag?

not sure but here in Beaufort SC that’s what it’s called!

The online community is by far the worst part.

What pisses me off the most about modern car culture is realizing it was not that long ago that I was a dipshit kid doing dumb stuff.

Also - Takeovers. I really, really hate them and the damage they are doing to the car community.

Dang. I thought I was the old crabby S.O.B. on this forum but looks like I have competition!

 

[AJRMKV]

There seems to be a competition going on between owners of automatic and manual sports cars which makes absolutely no sense to me.

Yes.....but, at least 20 years ago the biggest concern was not blowing the welds on your intake with a 200 shot of NOS.

DANGER TO MANIFOLD!

Well, who can blame the gen-whatevers.
Everything transitioned from full on mechanical to all electric, all plastic f'ery under hood..
Can bus, what now. No I don't want bus. Is there can Ferrari?
1980s: My headlights' not working. Just changes the bulb. Biggest challenge H11 or H7..
2023: could be software. Let me try new firmware, well, it's calibration. No, it's the laser beam. LEDs kaput, it'll be $1000 to replace. But but I only want some light at night.. Tough luck, your night time subscription ended at 7:35:45 pm. Do two chicken dances, send $3000 to Bepto Finland to unlock Scotty laser. Holla at light goddess.

Nailed it.

The online community is by far the worst part.

People online spend so much time and energy hating nonstop on other people's shit:

• other brands
• other models
• other generations
• other trims
• other transmissions
• other colors
• other parts
• other styles
• other setups

The list goes on...

Shut the fuck up and worry about your own car. You're not "telling like it is" or being "honest"--you're just being an online asshole.

First: I feel attacked.
Second: agreed. Except for stanced cars. That shit is whack no matter how sympathetic you try to be.


It all went downhill once street cred turned into "likes" and followers.

Generally, arrogance, ignorance, social media and young age combined tend to be the root cause(s) of all annoying people-related car culture trends.

Car specific trends I hate:
- Keyless entry
- Start&Stop
- No oil dipstick on the b58
- Stock exhaust being quiet

 

[Fridge Gnome]

Too many TE37s.

 

[damnsupra]

take over stuff and the know it alls, know it alls are the worst worst people

 

[MKV2021]

Following trends.

That money could be much better spent on therapy to find out why they need so much validation.

Supra stock exhaust is plenty, well for me anyway.
