Trips across more than just a map Many Americans love their cars. They define great moments of their lives via the road trips they take with their cars. Sometimes they even remember their families who came along as companions on the rides. The road trips become the Stuff of Legend -- stories that are told and re-told, occasionally improved (mere facts don't often do them the justice they deserve) and get passed down. I've even heard one road trip story told as part of a eulogy at a memorial service for a motorhead.This book compiles a bunch of those stories from different frames of reference.. "Not Just A Book But A Journey" according to Mark and Kathy. Once again David Dickinson has created and edited a masterpiece. This series of road trip stories start in 1915 as a cross country journey and take you to the present day from Automotive Day trips to Expeditions from all places in the US to Europe and even the Artic Circle! There is even a detailed log from a Pantera fun rallyeven an Opel Kadett road trip! Beware once you start reading you will not be able to stop! There is even an opportunity to submit your own story for future books and be part of the experience at David's web site OldCarNutBook.com.. This book has reminded me that I'm not the only person that loves to drive. I have been driving legally for over 50 years and the road has not yet lost its appeal. Everything from a quick trip to the auto parts store to a week behind the wheel creates the same pleasure. David Dickinson's latest book has reminded me that I'm not the only person that loves to drive. Sitting down with a fresh cup of coffee in one hand and David's book in the other is always the beginning of a great ride. I've enjoyed his first three books and eagerly anticipate the next book in his "Old Car Nut Book" series.
