Take Your RPMs and Leave!!!

By Al Vinikour
Throughout my life there have been a lot of worthless devices. Among them was my Pet Rock, my comic book collection of World War II soldiers on Pacific Islands that were inhabited by dinosaurs and my ex-wife. However, collectively none of them are more unnecessary to so many people than vehicles with tachometers. Oh, sure, there are those stalwarts who actually use an engine’s RPMs as shift points. Some would refer to these people as “driving enthusiasts.” Others would simply call them “anal.”
