We call my 76 F100 the Green Dragon because of the way it was running years ago with a blown piston and rings. It smoked really bad.

Blue or Big Blue now more like T Rex or Rex

Blue or Big Blue now more like T Rex or Rex.

Well we used to call him Blue or Big Blue.

But that was before the engine rebuild with dove heads and extreme cam, different body parts and new dual wide tip pipe straight out the back exhaust.

He is kind of grumpily aggressive. Wakes up kind of announced. Kind of grunts and grumpily at low rpms then builds to a determined roar. Eats up hills like they were not there. Likes to pick on trucks bigger/taller and prettier than him.

A very happy truck. Self assured truck. Loves to be on the move eating up the hi-way, or moving some dirt.

Ask your wife to name it, you may not like it but I bet it gets a name!

Just 'the Ford' for now. I would call it 'the truck' but we've also got a Dodge Ram Charger.

I just got the Ford not too long ago, so I guess I'll just wait for someone else to start calling it something... as long as it's not 'pumpkin!'

I had a pinto in '78 that all my friends called the 'THING' cause it had everything in it. All of my '70's era trucks and big broncos have been called the 'beast' (wife named them all and didn't care for any of them as she is a refined woman) except my 89 brown bronco...brownie...of course.

Not sure what to call my '77150 4x4. I'll name it when I get my propane-390hp 400 in it. I know...'The Stroker' cause......

I love doing that. It's awsome, they come out to their car with no one around wondering what the hell happened.
