But why did Prowl join the Autobots, and not the Decepticons, if the Autobots were the ones that couldn't stop the ones he hunted in the first place?
Because even as inefficient as the Autobot government was, Prowl was still an Autobot at spark (even if most Autobots would have been disgusted by his profession). Also, he wanted to make the Autobots work better than he was seeing when he was working as an assassin, so he joined up with an intention to clean up their act. When the war broke out, he was in the right spot to keep the Autobots in some semblance of order, as he saw it.
Since then, Prowl's concept of efficiency is one of the major factors keeping the Autobots alive and fighting.
Prowl and Red Alert crashed on Earth at least ten years before Bumblebee arrived. They landed in Sunnydale, California (AKA the Hellmouth).
I am wondering who in the Scoobies would make good regular partners for them. The idea of Buffy with a cool motorcycle who also acts as a regular protector (who, frankly, she feels she doesn't need - Slayer and all that) and advisor, but I don't know about Red. My thoughts for him is either Willow or Giles (or maybe he initially masquerades as Giles' car, until Giles goes back to Britain, then acts as Willow's after that).
