Book Description

June 18, 1997
Red Green, Dougie Franklin, Bill, Harold and the rest of the lodge members have gathered to talk cars.

The Possum Fraternity is here and eager to share hard-won wisdom about this basic life-support system. Red and Harold can help you deal with everything from those bad sounds your car?s been known to make to ?7 Kinds of Smoke—and What They Mean.? Dougie Franklin reveals all he knows about safe driving techniques, and Bill shows you how to theft-proof your car.

Red, Arnie Dogan, Winston Rothschild and Mike Hammer take a detour down memory lane lined with memorable cars. Lodge members offer practical tips on what to do if your car won?t start, doing your own car maintenance and how to make your car go faster. (They also provide helpful suggestions in case the cops pull you over.)

Handyman projects include turning you car into a tank, a fire engine, or a jet powered vehicle, and uses for leftover car engines or hoods. And those lucky enough to ride with you can benefit from advice on How to Be a Good Passenger (or How to Hitchhike). Meanwhile, the Car Buffs tackle the question, ?What was the best car ever made??


Finally—men talk about what moves them.

5.0 out of 5 stars A funny, non-serious book for car lovers!, June 28, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Red Green Talks Cars: A Love Story (Paperback)
MAN!! I had no idea of what was in store for me when I picked this book from the shelf. I read one page that was kinda funny and I thought it would be good. It turned out the it was so hilarious I was laughing so hard I could barely breath!!! I read the whole book in one day, and I loved it. The sheer stupidity of the book made it even more funny, with jokes about using engine parts to serve food and laying your tongue across the car battery terminals to test the battery. It had a wacky crossword puzzle that only the author could figure out because the clues made no sense, and that made it more funny. I would definately recommend this book. Jonathan Gray Age 14

5.0 out of 5 stars Chockfull of that great Red Green humor, October 2, 2008
This review is from: Red Green Talks Cars: A Love Story (Paperback)
Do you like that great product of Canadian humor, the New Red Green Show? If so, then you will like this book. Covering everything from British cars, through driving tips, dealing with police officers, to saying goodbye to your car, this book is hilariously funny. Along the way, the reader is treated to numerous humorous bumper stickers, my favorite of which is, "If you can read this, you are either too darn close or my bumper fell off again."

Yeah, this book is just chockfull of that great Red Green humor, sure to please anyone who drives...and even those that don't. My 15-year-old son and I both love this book, and we both highly recommend it.
