Do you name your vehicles?
Just felt like sharing an F-150 story. I got my first F-100 when I was 4 (Mom and Dad bought it when I was 4, but it was my first car.)! It was a 1982 F-100 XL Flareside. It was custom from the factory, two-tone (metallic chocolate brown and caramel colored), similar colored interior, with a 302 and 3-speed auto. His name was Brownie (blame mom!). Traded in '98 for Mom's new F-150.
My next one came at 17 when I was a senior in high. It was a 1996 Red F-150 XL styleside, 5-speed, 6-cylinder (named Red for obvious reasons). Kept it till I got my Bachelor's degree. That is where everything went downhill!
I sold my '96 (to a neighbor boy who just turned 16) and bought a loaded '01 Performance Red V6 Mustang (named R2 for Red 2). That thing was nothing but trouble. After encountering financial restraints, I sold the R2 and bought my grandmother-in-law's '94 Chevy Monte Carlo (no name). Another mistake. The Monte Carlo gave way to the '99 Tahoe (also no name). After that I swore I would never go Chevy again!
Present time, I traded the Tahoe for an Oxford White '03 F-150 XL Supercab Flareside. Everything is right in the world. I feel back at home in my new truck! Nothing makes you feel the way an F-150 does.
Ox (yes, the truck's name is Ox).
Does anyone else name their vehicles?

I call it Carolina. (Care-o-lean-uhh)
I call her Carolina because of what I've done in the truck with her(my girlfriend). If you catch my drift.
