Dirty Secrets, Real Talk, and Road Smarts Every Woman Needs

Love Letters From My Mechanic

by MARTY OFONAGORO

About The Book

Ladies, let’s keep it real—walking into a mechanic shop can feel like stepping onto a stage where everybody knows their lines but you. The lights are bright, the jargon flies fast, and before you know it, somebody’s sliding a repair estimate across the counter that looks like a down payment on a condo. You’re sitting there thinking, “Wait… didn’t I just come in for an oil change?”

That’s the hustle—and it’s been going on for way too long.

Love Letters From My Mechanic is here to flip the script. This isn’t your average car book filled with torque specs and diagrams that make you want to fake a headache. Nope. This is part survival guide, part comedy special, and 100% your ticket to never getting played in a shop again.

What’s inside?

The secret language your car speaks (and how to translate it before your mechanic does).

The top tricks shady shops pull—and how to shut them down with confidence.

Real-life advice you can use right away, like oil change hacks that save you thousands.

Stories that’ll make you laugh while you learn—because nobody said car care had to be boring.

And most importantly: the confidence to walk into any garage, look a mechanic in the eye, and say, “Try me if you want, but my wallet’s off-limits today.”

This book was born from heartbreak—after author Marty Ofonagoro lost his sister to a car accident, he vowed no one else should face needless danger or disrespect because they didn’t know what was happening under the hood. With years of professional experience as a licensed Red Seal Automotive Service Technician and a knack for telling it like it is, Marty has crafted a guide that blends insider knowledge, laugh-out-loud truth, and empowering lessons.

For women especially, this book is your armor. It’s your way to turn vulnerability into strength, confusion into clarity, and fear into fearless confidence. No more blank stares when a mechanic throws around phrases like “heat-glazed rotors” or “scored pads.” No more getting charged double for imaginary problems. And definitely no more “blinker fluid” scams (yes, they really try it).

At the end of the day, this book isn’t just about cars—it’s about respect. Respect for your time, your money, and your intelligence.

So, if you’re tired of feeling like prey in a shop full of wolves… if you’re ready to laugh, learn, and level up your car confidence… then buckle up. Love Letters From My Mechanic will change the way you see your ride, your repairs, and yourself.

Because every woman’s money deserves respect.
