Never really got into the 'naming cars' thing. Seems kinda silly to me.

Word. Why name them.....are they gonna come when I call them? Hell, I have pets three months before I bother naming them.

But I guess it wouldn't take that much effort would it? OK...after 12 years of ownership, I've decided to name him Harry.
