    Old family tradition.

    So old, that some of the vehicles came with names already.

    Like Betsy, the '71 International 1210.

    The '84 Ford was "Ol' Blue Dog".

    Then there was "The Grey Ghost", only everyone else called it the Silver Bullet ('71 Charger)

    Those are/were only a few of mine.

    Most also answered to "You b***h" also.

    The list goes back to when I was a kid being driven around in a Wagoneer called "Suzie" (1967)

    Dad was naming his in the 40s.

    The cycle in the avatar is referred to as "The Superslide", until I have a good handle on it's personality.

    Source(s): I left most of them out.

    Yes.

    Going Backwards,

    My Lesabre is Leroy

    My Jeep was Elenore

    My Lumina was Samantha

    My dad's truck is Orlando

    And the Dodge Charger I am working for will be called The Flying Skull

    Source(s): P.S. My cat's name is Oscar, but I am trying to think of something else, like The Extreme Orange_____. Don't fill in the blank I was just adding to my response.

    I named my Honda CRV "The CRV". The Ford Focus was called "The Ford". The Pontiac 2000 was called "The Pontaic Ooo" cause the 2 fell off. We call my grandmother Gladys, but she's not a car.

    Source(s): ## Gladys is a little 'off her rocker', if ya know what I mean! ##

    my kids made up cute names for my cars, like the green explorer they called the green car, and my blue mystique was the blue car. Kids have such crazy imaginations at times.
