My old man named all his vehicles from the time (before) be could drive. Motorcycles, hot rods, grocery getters... you name it, he named it. He'd also give you a dissertation as to why that justification was warranted and DAMN YOU if you didn't agree.
I just can't get with it. Same with the poster above that said they wouldn't name a boat under 24'. When I get a boat that I have to hire a crew for, we'll talk!
I drive the truck.
