Publisher's Summary

This week on Car Talk, what happens when you a tell a woman her Sable is a Granny car? If you're Mac's wife, you co-opt his pickup truck and drive that instead! Now Mac is hoping Tom and Ray can help liberate his beloved Tacoma from her clutches.

Elsewhere on the marital front, Amanda's all hot and bothered over her husband's refusal to turn on the air conditioning. Also, why Danielle's stuck windshield wipers are helping keep her car clean; a side-view mirror masher tries to blame the victim; and on Stump the Chumps, we find out if Jackson's bad idea for moving a chicken coop came home to roost. All this, plus the Puzzler Finale from the Prisoners in Hats series, this week on Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: July 2, 2011]
