    My first car was a corsica named Herman

    I have a pacifica now, nameless. I try not to get too attached to american cars... since their life expectancy is poopy. Less attachment, less feelings...:frown: :brokenheart:

    YAY Saturns! my Ion is named Babe, after Paul Bunyon's blue ox. My Honda Crosstour is named Tango, because it is Tango Red. Heck I even name my bicycles(because I use them the most) My mountain bike is Bumble bee and my commuter bike is EQ(earthquake) because I bought it almost exactly as the earthquake struck the D.C. area

    Absolutely. How can anyone NOT name their car? It's like not naming your dog, your cat or your kids... lol. Okay, that might be pushing it a little.


    I currently have a 1999 Chevy Prizm. Her name is Gloria. My boyfriend has a 1995 Geo Prizm whose name is Hector. lol.

    My first car was a 1986 Dodge Caravan - her name was Bess. Then I had a 1990 Geo Metro (this car was my love!) and her name was Gertrude, but I called her Gertee for short. I've had Bernice (Lumina), Iris (ION), Elsee (Aveo) and then my Prizm.

    Puff the Tragic Wagon. :)


    actually no, i drive a truck now that goes by the name "Rumbler" and sometimes "Big Black". i've had 8 cars so far and don't so much usually name them, but this one's staying with me for a while. so he gets a name.
    Puff the Tragic Wagon was the jeep that my ex now drives lol. it's truly tragic.
