Easier to read?

That would imply that an analog speedo is tough to read which is laughably wrong.

It can be? Not that it’s hard to read , but I felt it was harder to determine exact speeds in my last car. Am I going 41 of 40, 35 or 33. It’s not that big of a deal but I don’t really have that problem with digital.

Analog is occupied by speeds you will never use. 80 to 260 is useless to be and practically a waste of space for consumer cars.

Am I going 41 of 40

No speedo out there is accurate enough to distinguish between those two speeds.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
