      Who are today’s hot rodders? Where do they come from, what do they value, and why? Do gearheads and old metal have any place in tomorrow’s transportation landscape? What will be left behind? What will be carried forward?Over an eight year period, gearhead/geographer David Miller crisscrossed America in his home-built 1958 Chevy Apache custom truck interviewing hot rodders who are thoughtful and passionate about what they do, willing to speculate about why they do it and about what lies ahead. This book is a collection of their stories and a celebration of how they roll. It is a testament to what will be lost unless rodders can defy the trend towards mechanical cluelessness, anonymous vehicle styling, driverless vehicles, and a “get back in line and wait to be served” mentality that increasingly permeates our transportation landscape.
