F250Rob....my name is Rob and I have an F-250. Good thread topic, though, as some other guys aren't so obvious and have a better imagination.

Mine was:
51 = 1951 truck
Dueller = put Bridgestone Sand Duellers on van at that time and liked the name. Now represents my dually pickup. I could see the future.

A friend of mine had an old 48 F1 green color. He had it from 1978 until recently. We called the truck old green. My F1 is green so I call it old green even though its Ivory now its still old green.

Got a Beagle with an attitude named "Gus". Call him "Gusso".
I wanted to use Gus here, but was already being used on this forum,
Gusso was not. I use it on almost all forums I`m interested in.

AX racer
AX is the shorthand for autocross, the type of racing my wife and I do.
Some have thought it means I don't race anymore (An eXracer?) but that's hardly the case, leaving for a race in about 30 minutes! Bought Gracie to pull our enclosed trailer, but she has grown to be much more. We bought a new pickup to pull the trailer with a couple weeks ago, Gracie will still see towing duty occasionally, but now we don't feel rushed and can finish her right.

I have 4 older brothers and when I was a kid they nicknamed me Walston. I remember the day, it was a Sunday and we were watching the Wonderful World of Disney as a family (something America has lost over the years..too bad), the show was sponsored by the Ralston Purina Company. My brother Dale said, "Yeah we should call you Walston"..........been that way ever since.

Actually growing up with the name Wally has lead to lots of nicknames: Waldo, Walleye, Waldo Pepper, Beuford (long story), etc.............Walston has stuck the longest.
