Default Stupidest Antique Car Quiz Ever

HowStuffWorks "Classic Car Parts Quiz: Find the Diamond in the Rough"



I got a 5. Maybe it's because I did poorly that I think this is the dumbest quiz ever.

Cheaters may look here. It defines a classic car as anything 20-40 years old. Over 40 years old is an "Antique". Then it says a 1970 AMC Gremlin isn't a classic, while a 1959 Impala isn't. So what if the Gremlin had problems? It's still a classic. I hate to make the poor analogy, but it's like saying a child with down syndrome isn't a child.

Anywho... I thought it asked dumb questions. And it's questionable where you will find the cheapest parts. And they don't do a good job defining hwat a "Dealer" is.

I got 7 out of 10, mainly probably because I was trying to give the answer I thought they wanted to hear.
I'm with you though, I didn't agree with a lot of it.

I got 6/10 but I was the same way - several of them I would have answered differently.

Maybe we should have gone with our first instincts.
