My 1978 F-250 Custom was (is) called "Henry"
I have not had any names stick to any of my other vehicles.

1982 Subaru GL Wagon = "The $50 BITCH" Because it blew billows of
black smoke when first started, was slow as hell, went
anywhere, never stopped running even after the hell I put
it though, and only cost me $50 bucks to buy
1991 Ranger Std. Cab = "THE BITCH II" Bought this after I totalled
the subaru off-roadin, always had a way to open my wallet to buy
something for it every week, got stuck everywhere (its a
2wd ranger, no need to say anything more), and never let me sit
on the side of the road till it caught fire that one day on the
highway(##### happens)
1990 F-150 SC XLT Lariat = just bought this, so not sure what the
name is gonna be, but, most likely will mimic my last two n/n

50 F3 -- "Big Tank"
75 Impala -- "The Beast"
85 S10 Blazer -- "Sonic the Hedgetruck"
99 Outback -- I had thought up a neat name but forgot it soon after, so it's just referred to as "the Outback"

Hey Million, did I inspire you to create this topic?

For those that didn't see mine here they are:

Family's vehicles (past and present) nicknames:

92 Explorer - "Eddie" because it was the Eddie Bauer trim (the vehicle that started the nicknames)
96 Contour - "Connie", my sister's car so she came up with it
97 Ranger - "Walker" because of the show "Walker Texas Ranger"
98 Contour - "Bonnie", sister car and it is blue...
98 Explorer - "Junior" because being a Sport, it's smaller than the more popular 4-door model
99 Mystique - "Mysty", Mother's car so she came up with it
00 Explorer - "Donnie" because of the Syracuse Orangemen Quarterback Donovan McNabb (now plays for Eagles)

I was reading this and I got a good laugh out of the most popular name so far "Betsy" My friends dad bought an 85 F150 4x4 and jokingly thats what we wanted to call it but he never went for it. No other name ever came up so Betsy stuck. As for mine:

1984 F150 - Chromed to the Nutz. My sisters friend was over and I showed it to her and she said wow that thing is chromed to the nuts and it has stuck ever since. I even have a license plate on the tool box that says it.

1986 F150 4x4 - The Blue and Red Machine. When I first got it it had lots of surface rust so I painted in in my driveway first with a red rust primer then started painting in blue, I never did finish it so it was half red and half blue. The next summer I painted it orange then got a new box for it which was blue so it was orange and blue, yet we still call it the blue and red machine which gets soem funny reactions.
