Editorial Reviews

From AudioFile
For those who never tune to public radio, Tom and Ray Magliozzi answer listener calls about car problems on their 10-year-old weekly NPR program, "Car Talk." Aging boomers like their fans, they speak like two Boston grease monkeys up on their Cliff's Notes (both are MIT grads), laugh heartily at their own jokes and generally dispense more fun than auto repair lore. This cassette consists of program snippets loosely dealing with romance behind the wheel. The brothers sound as delightfully silly on tape as they do on the air; the callers just as tickled to be teased. Ovid and Ralph Nader, watch out! Y.R. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Laughed hard enough that I shouldn't have been driving!5
Great stories of the guys vs gals and a wonderful throw in on a college students response to a candidate college! My only complaint would be that the tape was too short only about an hour of entertainment, but a great hour!!!And if you need a good mechanic in Boston this tape has the perfect guy for you - really!!

This book should be given out along with driver's licenses5
I wish I had this book ten years ago. The best $10 you can spend on your car. You should have this book if you have a new car, if you only drive your parents' car, if you have never owned a car and are about to buy one, or like me, if your car has been trouble-free and is now starting to act up. It's useful, it makes complete sense, and is very funny too. I plowed through it in about two hours. And if you think you don't know anything about cars, wait until you read what some other people have done...

Stick with the Car Advice!5
I guess you either love these guys or you hate them. My wife finds them incredibly annoying when she hears them on the radio.

Myself, I love them. Their accents are not off-putting to me, and I love how they laugh together.

What I've learned over time, though, is that the 'straight' answers they provide are actually pretty authoritative. They actually know what they're talking about, based not only on their extensive formal education but also based on their hands-on work with many, many cars.

This book distills this expertise into important, relevant items you need to know. Buy it and keep it in the car - you'll be glad!
