Yet another valid reason to stay single.
Driving a Focus is alright..for a gal,(like Skidooman's wife) but now who is the moderator that just has a Focus?
Come on Jim I'm throwin you one heck of a bone.

 

Add my old 74 to the list of "betsy's". Not sure why there are so many, it just came natural for some reason. Must have been in a comic or something like was suggested. My 81 step side was christened as "Ethel" by my brother and I on the night I bought it many years ago. Cold Ethel to be exact. For some reason the name matched the silver paint job in our minds.
Good topic folks, I think I'm gonna go call my brother and see if he remembers...
Later

My Truck's name is Wampuss.


I named it after I built the sleeping bed in the back under the topper.

 

My baby is called Black Pearl

 

You just had to place that caveat on this thread, didnt you? It would have been more colorful without it!

 

I just yell "You shoulda been a Chevy you such and such"

 

LaredoF350, there`s always a disclaimer to everything, most of the time it`s in the fine print.....

 

My current Ranger doesn't have a name....yet. My 82 VW truck was Kermit, because it was green. My 89 Ranger was 2 9, because it had a 2.9L in it (I guess 4 0 would be fitting, but doesn't have the same ring to it.) My 94 F-150 was Big Red, cause it was red. I bought a 83 Merc Grand Marquis off a friend because I wanted the engine, and he called it Nipples, because it had dual exhaust that just stuck out under the bumper, looking like a pair of nipples.

 

"ole red" I guess because every vehicle I have ever owned has been red. My last ford truck was red too and it was a great truck, but no 4x4 or extended cab-so it had to go. Before "ole red" was red it was the "redneck limo". I think "ole red" will have to change once it is completly rebuilt.....maybe "mayhem" as I still have those personalized plates from my Trans/Am.

 

Had a 1970 VW Westfalia . My Buddys used to call it the Jesus Van I dont know why , go figure!

 

my 86 F-150 XLT Lariat is called laura, my buddy came up with it when he saw lariat on the side and mispronounced it, he must be a chevy guy

 

Wow, this is an old thread....

 

oh I named my new semi Peggy.

 

We had a '76 Impala in the family for 21 years. I used to call it Vlad the Impaler.....
I think I got the name from a Hot Rod Magazine article.

 

I named my boat Holly
