I see lots of you have multiple vehicles and I wonder if you have assigned a name to them. Me and the wife always get our vehicles cornfused when we talk to each other. She thinks I mean my truck but Im talking bout the Tahoe.
 
my blazer is the mud bunny and the dually is just the dually. dragonfly for "i drag up one side, but i fly down the other."

i used to have sanford, the red k30. then the grey k30 was named sarge for some reason. my 77 c10 bonanza was named the "chevro" cause primer covered the rest of the letters on the tailgate.
 
i call my '91 K5 "Black Fear" due to its color, same as my motorcycle and my
17year old Toyota Van in the back, too...

my blazer actually named me, at least on line. i had a tire cover on the back w/ run amok airbrushed on it. when i started wheeling it, that's what everyone called me to differentiate w/ a couple other blazers.

the dodge is just the dodge, my harley is the scooter, my s10/k5 wheeler will be the franken truck (or maybe frikkin truck!) once i start the build up.
 
My K5 is named every single cuss word I can spew out when I'm pissed off cause something is not going right while working on it at the time. So she has LOTS of names, none are ones I can post here though. :D :haha::haha::haha:
 
I went with Iron Maiden cuz everything but the TH400 is Iron....

and Eddie Rocks....

 
I namied a build thread long ago Trail Widener so some call my rig the widener. My user name on a local sight is pigdog so some call it the pig. I sometimes call it that too but it's not really named.

Well I didn't name mine but it got named for me:
Smokey Joe was my K5 diesel powered by a real smokey old turbo diesel perkins.
I still have the engine but the truck is scrapped.
Might have a Smokey Joe II soon:D
 
I never named mine. But when I was building it, My wife always asked, are you going out to the garage to play with your Jimmy?
 
my truck was named the backwoods express, that before all of the trouble started now i simply refer to it as the turd. my buddies was named the duck stomper, not sure when or where that came in but now its just the poser truck cause it doesnt wheel anymore
 
My dads 79 Blazer is "The Beast" (or atleast was when it was running) and ive kinda used that a couple times for mine...I have heard people at school call it the turd cause its brown and my friends call it a tank because i rear ended someone in a wreck and did a TON of damage to the little car but the only thing wrong with my Jimmy was the GMC on the grille got broke off and my aftermarket fog lights blew the bulbs :D
 
My Suburban is the only vehicle I've ever had that was named, and it has two names. My neighbor's family calls it "Lurch", and it is known at work as the "USSkovalchik". The last is where my screen name comes from and Kovalchik is my last name.
 
i call mine piece of shat, huge turd on pizza cutters, parts truck, etc etc...depends on the day
 
i named mine "the undertaker" cuz of the paintjob on the tailgate, and i asked it what it wanted its name to be, i forgot what the first choice was, but the truck didnt look happy, when i said the undertaker, it looked like it smiled, but maybe im crazy lol
