Default I have to ask -- Do you name your car?

Okay,

So, I just read a thread from awhile back and a member got a lashing for naming his car.

I name ours. And I love it. Our new one is Ginger Spicy (she's spicy and fun).

And yes, I know I will get some backlash for this, as I did read the other thread.

For those that do name, please share your name.

LOL

I do call it the Vette sometimes. Example: "Honey I'm going to wash the Vette again".

I call mine Suzette. It's the name of the lay that's locked up inside of the NAV.

No, I do not have a name for the car.

If and when it should breakdown, then I will probably come-up with one or two.

I don't name my cars, it's just "the Vette." But, when the plates came as "xxx JDY", I decided her name must be "Judy." I still call her "the Vette" though.
