Like most New Yorkers, I don't have a car. And, like most New Yorkers, the closest I usually come to a stretch of open road is if I'm lucky enough ...

After an over 500 page classic like the Satanic Verses, it was somewhat nice to have a book that contained the words orgasm and brain douche within the introduction alone. Right up my alley.
Now let's get some background on this lil pink (not my fave but I'll stomach it) book filled with crass humor. Who else could have given it to me but my own mother? Really, one family dinner with the Howes and you'll start understanding me a lot more. Unfortunately you won't be able to tell anyone More...

Loved this book! So many good ideas for travel . . and some really, really "bad" ones, too. Not necessarily for minors, some sexual references and off-color language, but all in all not offensive. Just fun!

Officially the only book I have ever set on fire (it fell behind a heater) but it is a fitting cover modification to make it look like I am truly lived using this book. It is HILARIOUS!

What a hilarious book! As someone who has enjoyed a road trip or two (or MANY) in the past, I can't wait to test some of the advice out with MY "road sisters" (namely my friends Emilie and Colleen) the next time we all hit the road together.
The only thing I found disconcerting about this book was a blurb on Page 17 about finding Super Unleaded gasoline at under $1.25 a gallon, as I just celebrated the fact that I saw regular grade gas for under $4 dollars ($3.99, to be spe More...

This was a very funny book. I wouldn't do half the things that are listing in the book. But it craked me up a lot. A quick read.

You could pretty much open this book to any page & find something to make you laugh. Very fun!

fun book to take on a road trip. full of odd tips. my favorite: if you're stopped by the fuzz and you've been drinking and have the better part of an open handle in the car get out slowly with the handle, hands in the air, until you're a few steps from the car, and immediately begin guzzling the liquor as fast as possible. this way they can't prove that you were drunk WHILE driving. of course, you're in trouble no matter what here.

This book was a gift from my sister prior to my big road trip out to California. It's a fun book to keep handy if you're feeling adventurous on the road. The only drawback is that some suggestions in this book may get you shot. Keep that in mind as you peruse.

I think I bought this with the misguided notion I would give it to my goddaughter for her birthday. Once I got it home, I thought better of it.
Let's be clear - the reason for not giving it to my godchild was not because of any fear of contributing to her moral decline. It was because of the overall witlessness of the book.

This is a completely frivolous romp into lite feminism. With easy access to short sections in the book that can be read independently from one another, it makes for a perfect travel tool. Besides, where else are you going to learn how to flirt successfully with the car in the other lane while driving 65 mph?

This book came to my roommate and I at the perfect time. It's witty, hilarious and entertaining (especially if you are driving and your passenger is reading it outloud). It had us laughing trough Washington, Oregon, California and a pick up at the Reno airport. Bad ass.

Car tips and road trip stories, all mixed in with fun ideas on how to make your life a little more... bad. A GREAT present for any young woman getting her first car, and always enjoyable to re-read on road trips. If there were 6 stars, this would get it!

This book was so fun to read. It's not a story, but a guide on how to be wild on road trips you may take with girl-friends.
It's very funny and it left me wanting to go on a wild road trip.

Oh this book made me laugh so hard I peed my pants. Definitely should be required reading for a long road trip. You won't be able to put it down!

I bought this book when I first got to college and I loved it. Good times and good laughs. It was great for long road trips with the girls.

I live my dreams of setting out on a long road trip through this book. It's funny and pretty damn informative too.

This book is absolutely hilarious and absolutely necessary reading before any women takes a road trip.
