Did you name your car?

My 4-banger manual GMC Sonoma is Baby - "Come on, Baby, we can make this hill"

I confess..

My Durangos name is the Anti-Prius

fravel · 06-27-2018, 11:54 AM

Nope...although I do have two cars, so when talking about it I just refer to it as "the bimmer".

No.

The E93 is Hans (my friend Debbie named him), the G35 was Betty (named after Master Payne on Kung Pow), the Lexus IS 350 was Ginny as in Ginsu cutlery as it was sharp and precision. Before the luxury cars, I had a completely blacked out Montero Sport that everyone in this town though was an undercover vehicle so it was named 5-O, then my first car was a '76 El Camino that was name Elmo by my dad.

After driving a car it tells you its name, it is not given it is in the car...it comes to you. I have names for a few rentals and loaners I have driven.
