It's a sad day for people who loved to listen to those two nutty brothers give advice on everything from transmissions to relationships. :(

I also read this yesterday... I often listened to the "Car Talk" show and read the columns. I also loved the dynamic that they had and brought to the big screen in "Cars".

Rust in peace.

Tom's brother, Ray, will be doing a tribute show tomorrow on CarTalk. At the end I'm pretty sure he's gonna say "Don't drive like my brother" and no one will answer. I'm probably gonna cry when that happens :-(

How long ago did they stop producing new shows? I hadn't even realized what was going on till I heard about him passing. I would only listen occationally, if I happened to be out and about on Saturdays when it was on...
Always made me smile though.
RIP

It's been a couple years maybe since they stopped. I loved listening as well. Loved Tommy, RIP
