It occurred to me, as someone who grows faint looking under the hood of my car and has no intention of even attempting to fix anything in there, that this is still a useful book, if for no other reason than it will help me determine how honest my mechanic is. The Family Handyman Simple Car Care and Repair offers good, practical, readable, and sometimes even humorous advice for people wanting to know how their cars or trucks work, why they sometimes don't, and how to prevent the latter from happening.
