We all remember Henry Winkler as the leather jacket-clad James Dean-composite "The Fonz" from Happy Days. But he's traded in his skis motorcycle for something a bit more grown-up: a Lexus RX400h. Winkler is driving the hybrid crossover throughout Britain, touring schools to promote his best-selling Hank Zipzer children's novels. The stories are about an underachieving boy with dyslexia, and are based on Winkler's own childhood...ironic considering people who drive Lexus hybrid crossovers are usually trying too hard.
