Mines ol' blue also! We had a old blue tick hunting dog who was the family's pride and joy. His name was Ol' Blue. When he died years ago we had him cremated. Well I took his ashes and injected that in a vat of abs plastic. I then poured the plastic in a mold I made for the headliner. Till this day old blue rides above me. Nahhhh, I'm just pulling your leg!!! No cool story here, its old and blue so I named it Ol' Blue.

I've gone through a few names for mine, but Grumpy is the one that's stuck. I was sitting there looking at it one day with the motor pulled, the hood off, and parts scattered everywhere and it just fit. Besides, when it was running it took forever to warm up.

Honeybadger's her name and not giving a **** is her game.
Started with that internet joke "honeybadger dont give a ****". Ive been asked several times to tow large amounts of stuff or heavy things and each time I would reply with "truck dont give a ****". After several times I was asked if my honeybadger could haul something "honeybadger dont give a ****" and well...the name kinda stuck.

You guys have some REALLY cool names for your trucks. I'm from Canada, Southwestern Ontario to be exact. The guys and gals that know my '77 f-150 XLT call her " Christine 2"
Dad bought it new wrote it off with 700 miles on it
I bought it,had her 2 days and the Old Girl wrote it off.
She was put back on the road both times and now is in a 1,000,000 pieces on the shop floor. Redoin' her 1.... .LAST .....Time. And the people that have seen her in the last 20 or so years call her " LOKI" She fools a lot of other vehicles cause she is really quick.
