The book is subtitled: Car Talk’s Click and Clack Rant and Rave and that is exactly what this book is – a collection of rants on a variety of subjects from poor drivers, to the sorry state of education, to global warming. I love National Public Radio’s Car Talk program. Listening to the brothers laugh their way through the various dilemmas posed by their audience was entertaining and laugh-producing. A wonderful way to start a weekend. I was expecting that kind of reaction to the book. There were some entertaining essays in the book, but I was disappointed. That’s mostly my own fault, because I didn’t read the description closely, or pay attention to any reviews. There’s probably a rant about idiot readers who don’t know what kind of book they just picked up … no reviews | add a review

Even though I know nothing about cars I have listened to the radio show and have enjoyed their lively banter. I may have even learned a thing or two. That is why I decided to read this book. It was not quite what I expected. Even though parts of the book were tongue-in-cheek, there were other parts that I felt were more likened to a lecture than to a rant. I anticipated a lighter read that would more closely replicate their exchanges on the radio.
