Ours is named the Possum Van, but we will gladly share the name with you.

Other ideas:

The Dust Buster
The Space Shuttle
'IT'
"Christine"
Old Red

ours is a gold 92 3.0L and we like to refer to it as the "BEAST", the "BIG SQUARE NOT VERY AERO(DYNAMIC) THING"

Why the bad name? Two transmissions later it still hardly moves. There's not a single piece of interior that isnt damaged in some shape or form, likewise for the exterior. I love rust. But not really at all. Only thing good left in it's the motor.

We call ours the Bear, because it has a deep growl to it (note to self, replace that rusted out muffler)

I call mine 'NAVYBEAN'. may I suggest "RosieGO" aka "ROSYGOES". I tend to agree with 96,after a few trips you'll know the right name.

1st you need to figure out if is a Him or a Her.

I always remember an episode of Benny Hill where he was watching a guy play slots. The guy would go to the slots and say "hey baby your so beautiful, your lovely, etc"
and the slots paid off. So Benny did the same thing to a slot and nothing. Did it 3-4 more times and still nothing. The guy walked up and put in a coin and said "Hey Sam, Hows the wife amd Kids?" The slot paid off.

So is the Van a Him or a Her?

I picked up my 90 Aerostar on Feb. 22. . . It became George Washington Aerostar

I picked up my 94 Aerostar just before the 4th of July. . . It became Uncle Sam Aerostar.

I got my 96 off eBay. It's green and someone said it looked like a catfish. . . so that's what it is, Catfish
