      Current car-like object is called "Refrigerator Box." Its a Honda Element.

      Predecessors include, "The Suby" (an Impreza), "Rubber Ducky" (a yellow Celica), the "Toy Auto" (dove grey Carolla), "Baby the Tank" ('66 Plymouth Sport Fury with consumptive body rot that needed to be babied a great deal and drank prodigious amounts of hi-test), and a '59 Rambler station wagon called "Nellie the Mbler" because all the Rs and As had fallen off. Nellie was sufficiently rusty in her later years her back doors were tied to each other so they wouldn't fall off.

      Actually, all the cars were elderly when I got them except the latest two. I tend to drive them until the wheels fall off.

      I haven't named my car but I occasionally yell at Dolores - the GPS narrator woman. I don't know where that came from but it just fits.

      Ours is Bridget.
      She's a dumb ho :p

      Mine is Hi-C because my generic old license plate starts with HYC-___

      But mostly I just call it "my car" to differentiate it from hubby's which is "Dad's car" or "your POS". His is newer, but mine has bluetooth and butt warmers. ;)

      my first car was a 1993 acura integra.

      Me and some friends were listening to a song where the lyrics said "worms in your wellington". We then called my car the wellington.

      no, but my radar detector does-- "Grace".

      Yes. But it's called the j***mobile. I blocked it out, but it's inappropriate. When I bought it, I failed to look at the license plate, it has that particular word on it without the i. Stupid move. I wish I had checked.

      THE SHERMAN TANK

      '75 Yellow Corolla (The car I learned to drive a stick on)

      BLUE BUCKY...

      ...BUCKY DENT
      parked in NYC, came back to find a big bash on the side.

      I started out driving a red beat up dump truck. We named it old-man- jenkins because it would whine when you went up hills or tried to take it out of retirement and haul anything.

      Now I have a 97 jeep grand cherokee named janet. My sister named it so she could yell 'danmit janet'

      My first car was Stacey the Stratus. My current car is Maizy the Malibu.

      Boring? Yeah. But they have a nice ring to it, no?

      Yes, my Jeep's name is Ajax.

      It's a LONG story, but the punchline is "Because Ajax is stronger than dirt!"

      My first car was a 2002 Chevy Malibu. I named it "Jessie" after the owner, Jessica, who had previously had the car. Her husband sold it to me after she had died and he no longer wanted to see it in the garage as a reminder of his lost wife. I thought it was a very fitting name, and a way to honor her memory as well.



      My car, now, is a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe. I named her Eva, after the robot in the Pixar movie Wall-E. It's a smooth ride, she's sleek and metallic, and I felt that "Eva" sounds a little Spanish, which is fitting for a Santa Fe.
