What’s in a name….really?

You're driving a Ford???? *searches for "block" button...lol! Does it have the heated tailgate??

Never had a truck, but named all all our cars; sometimes renaming them as their character unfolded.

A minivan we called “the happy mobile” because we added a page to its operator manual saying that the vehicle was not to be operated with driver or passengers in a foul mood. To that end, the driver’s checklist had a step for attitude checks.

One Ford product was named “Dangerous” because of a sudden, rapid acceleration quirk. Step on the brake pedal sometimes and the engine would race to 2500 rpm. Push the brake pedal harder and it would race to 5000 rpm. A few months later renamed it “Piece of Shit” when it took a threat of a lawsuit to get Ford to pay attention to me. Ford eventually sent a factory mechanic who fixed the problem within 30 minutes. A few months later renamed it “Piece of Shit” again when sudden overheat became the new threat. We contemplated renaming it “Gone” and to help make that happen the plan was to just make sure that we didn’t lock it when parking and leaving the keys on the driver’s seat. A lawyer neighbor suggested that that plan exposed us to danger once the would be thief discovered the overheat quirk. Eventually that was fixed, and a few months later the dead battery quirk appeared. Or more like a battery killer quirk because a replacement, fully charged battery could find itself fully depleted within 24 hours, sometimes. At that point, all Ford products were called “Never Again”, and what followed was 500,000 miles of pain free Toyotas and Nissans, all called “Whitey” because they were white.

I love this! Just had a discussion with the family last night in the naming of cars.

OK I couldn't ignore this one and even googled - Lita is literally performing as I type this

And played live in the Hamptons, I would say for the last 25-30 years. I saw her twice!

I have old Yeller, a 40 yo yellow Chevy pickup. Runs just fine. No desire for a new electronic wonder truck.

I'd rather be driving a Ford than a Chevy

With all the bells and whistles I'm down.

Oddly, I have never named any of my vehicles.

I will live and die by my 2008 ranger.

When read Lita the first thing that came to my mind was Ozzy and Lita Ford close my eyes forever.
Awesome truck names! My current F150 is Pearl and my previous was named Jaden, both due to there colors

You're lovely 💙

Love this, I name all my vehicles too. My Jeep is Rayna. Love the way you choose their names. ☺️

Love this. Me and my friends all name their cars!

May God bless you and Betty. 🤗🙏🙏🙏
