Everything I know about cars : a collection of made-up facts, educated guesses and silly pictures about cars, trucks and other zoomy things / by Tom Lichtenheld.
The author offers a caveat at the beginning of the book: "I don't know much about real cars, but I'm an expert on made-up cars, so this book is a big traffic jam of mostly made-up cars." He recounts a history of cars that involves prehistoric cavemen, ancient Egyptians, Vikings, and two horses named Winnie and Nay.
