Do you name your cars? Or parts of your car?

[pronstar]

I’ll preface this by saying I don’t name my things, not even my cars.

I get it, lots of folks name their cars.
Tacoma - Taco, I get it.

But taking to some guys today, they even name their car parts. Or the brand of their cars.

Genesis (car brand) - Genny
Bilsteins shocks - Billys
Silverado - Sylvie
Goodyear tires - Goodys
Tundra - Tundy
Raptor - Rappy
Gladiator - Gladdy
Lexus - Lexi
Telluride - Telly

WTF are you 12 years old?
Maybe I’m just old and cranky.
Get off my lawn.

I've heard of Taco but none of the others. I do call the wife's Honda SUV a Hon-da-da-da but that does go back to when I was 12yo and we called Honda motorcycles that name.

 

[Texasgordo]

I call my pickup truck a Fuggin Piece of Shit when something breaks on it. Does that count?

 

[1911'S 4 Me]

All depends on what's wrong with it. My truck that is.

 

[BRD@66]

No, but one of my X gen kids & his millennial son do so faithfully.

 

[Brains]

Nope, I won't name my cars after what happened with Christine.


But no, I don't name 'em.

 

[Grumps21]

What idiot fool names his rides?
My (wife’s actually)PCX scooter = Penelope
My Vstrom = Vicki

 

[Coiled]

More a description than a name but camroid = Highlander.

Beyond what's her name , I don't recall ever naming another ride.

 

[single stack]

My old 1957 Harley FLH was Miss Behavin’.

 

[V-Tach]

Nope, never....

Ps, I only name two things:
Air filter - Huffy
Exhaust pipe - Pooter

 

[Wudidiz]

Of course. I've also named all of my fingers and toes. Just so they know that I care.

 

[thescoutranch]

Alway name most of our vehicles, and definitely not millennials.

Wife’s Escape = Eeyore
My excursion = Mongo (blazing saddles)
Our Colorado = Blackie
Newmar Dutchstar = Duke

 

[PinnedandRecessed]

My Vstrom = Vicki

When you tell you wife you're going to go take Vicki for a ride but she finds the Vstrom is still in the garage after you've left.

 

[PinnedandRecessed]

Wife's car = the car

My truck = the truck

HD Road King = the bike

 

[Lonesome Dove]

Honda=Honda
Tacoma=Truck
Mustang= My car, but as of lately it's been Fk! that car.

 

[southtexaspilot]

I call my girlfriend’s Subaru the Lesbaru. Aircraft is named Sancha. That’s about it. My cars or bikes don’t have names.

My '53 Chevy truck was named "Gluck".
That was from the sound of oil being poured into the filler tube.

 

[red442joe]

Sure, I call them all kinds of names.
The parts usually get four-letter names...
