NO, I DON'T NAME MY VEHICLE BUT DON'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG
WITH NAMING IT.
NO, NAMING A VEHICLE IS RIDICULOUS

Ive named my Camry Carla.

the white Jag: Claire
the red Jag: Sparky
the Benz: Bunny
Oh, gosh, now I feel so vulnerable.

Volvoguy, I love "Sven"!

Join Date: Mar 2003 Location: Sunny So Cal Posts: 593 | Our 4 year old has called the 59 Bad Cad since the first time he heard the motor start up.  Unfortunately here in CA Bad Cad was taken for the license plate so it is now Bad 59.
To the other Lynn, my car is also called land yacht by others. It is just under 20 ft. long...

Actually, my previous vehicle had a male name too - Bømanden It means "the Bogeyman" in Danish. It was a big old white GMC stepvan, that had been a mail truck.

My sister named her car when she was single so it wouldn't sound like she was going out alone. "I'm going out with Nigel"
