She grew up in a farming community in California; I grew up in a NYC suburb. I always thought information technology was a Baby Boomer generation thing just perchance it was indeed regional? One of the kids on my block had a yellowish 1960 Buick that he named the Big Banana, and a 1970s co-worker had a red Ford Pinto that she named the Tiki Torch subsequently the whole exploding gas tank thing started (morbid, yep, just funny.) The funny thing is that I never named my cars dorsum in the mean solar day (60s, 70s, etc) but I did name my 2002 Lexus "Lexie" (how unoriginal, right? lol) after I'd had it about viii years (kept information technology for fifteen.) However, my new ride which is a 2017 Honda was named Athena during her first week. Anyone else who either did or notwithstanding does proper noun their car(s)? The last machine I owned, a Ford Fiesta hatchback, was named "FooFoo von BunnyButt". Because the rear of the Fiesta hatchback looks (to me) like a bunny's barrel. I should've glued a large cotton wool-ball to it for the tail.

Yes, always name them. Most accurate was the Kia sportage named "the little red b!+@h" afterwards a Drew Carey episode. Terrible motorcar with a great warranty; we used to expect until at least three things were broken earlier taking information technology in for service. Electric current motorcar is the Blunenicorn. It has a twisty antenna that looks like a horn, and it's bluish. The truck nosotros got from my dad was "the colonel" (dad was a marine).

My best friend in college chosen her car Charlie. But that was sort of her thing. Well-nigh of united states of america didn't take cars, but the couple others who did, didn't proper name them. When I got my offset GPS, before it became an app on a phone, I called the GPS She Who Must Exist Obeyed. I'd sometimes shut her upwards in the glove compartment, and I'd withal hear that faint, didactic voice coldly saying, " recalculating, recalculating."

I started naming my cars from the very first one. It was a 1950 chevy, painted in gray primer. It looked only like something that would have dropped from the wing of a b52, so we chosen it 'The Bomb'. My dad'south car was a 1970 Chrysler that was so large, information technology looked like 'The Bulgemobile' of National Lampoon fame. We joked that it needed to accept 4 volkswagons as 'tugs' to pull/push it into our garage, so nosotros named it "The Queen Mary".

Always named my cars. So does my husband, and his parents. My mom called all of her cars Susie Jane. I can withal remember her begging "Come up on Susie Jane, yous can do it", whenever she was being difficult to commencement and cranking it over and over..."Come up on Susie Jane! My showtime car, a very small Honda Civic, was BeBop. My Prelude was "the 'lude". My scarlet Toyota pickup was RedTruck (not very original). My white Toyota pickup, later on I wrecked RedTruck, was Snowball. My green 2002 Honda CR-V is Kermit (information technology does wait similar a frog, and information technology'due south not piece of cake being dark-green). Hubby only inherited Kermit when nosotros sold his car, Ms Blue. My new deep wine red CR-Five is named Wine Carleone. I always like my FIL'southward car that was a Saturn named Ringo. My married man also had an old green Malibu that he called Pea Green, but I chosen it the Mali-butt. His white El Camino is the El Commode.

Great posts ! I've laughing out loud. I've named a few of my cars. Most notable: Red was my carmine 89 T-bird. I LOVED that car and became emotionally attached. Despite the fact that Cherry-red was over 15 yrs old, and hammering me with repair bills, I refused to sell her, and kept her for years, parked in the driveway, afterward I bought my next vehicle. Having learned my lesson about emotional attachments to vehicles, I didn't name that machine. Still I felt badly about trading information technology in, over again fifteen yrs later, to buy my new, red (all my cars are red) Ford escape. Because the colour is Ruby blood-red, alas, I call her Ruby. I figure, as sometime as I am, I'll drop dead before I take to trade her in so don't worry about emotional attachments.

Now I will accept to crank up Google to detect that, lol Yes, "FooFoo" was the proper noun I used well-nigh regularly. My daughter had come with the proper name "FooFoo" and but afterward did I call up that there was that poem about Little Bunny FooFoo, so the bunny-barrel connection seemed to click fifty-fifty better after that.
