Here's mine. Say hello to Sophia.

I don't name my cars any more than I name anything I am raising to eat. Makes it harder to kill

You've never really had a working animal then.

why would I raise a working animal to eat? chickens, pigs, cows, they don't work at anything besides making me eggs, soup, bacon, and burgers

My car named herself; or, the DMV did at least. I still GIS her name though, and I guess her given name is appropriate as the images that came up were of motor oil.

You named your car after him? Okay, at least it is safer than naming it after Ray....we all know what he does to cars.

Matt did a review on 2013 Escape. I was thinking about getting a Ford Edge at that time and told him that I was mixed up after reading his review. He replied to me..........Escape, SE, 1.6L. I took his advice (except I stepped up a notch and got the SEL). I've never named a car before this one.

2013 Ford Escape after his recommendation to me here........... http://jalopnik.com/5902768/2013-f…

Hermóðr (Hermod) rides to Hel on Sleipnir.

Sleipnir is an eight legged horse, so the second image is inaccurate, but looks nice. :)

Hermóðr the Brave ( Old Norse " war - spirit ", [1] anglicized as Hermod ) is a figure in Norse mythology , the son of the god Odin .

Dori isn't named after a person, but an idea. "Dori" is a common term for "drift" in drift culture. No clue how accurate it is from Japanese translation.

The only car I named was my Wrangler. It was my first car and me and my highschool friends were naming our cars "R" female names. We had Rosalita the Maxima, Rhashumba the Jetta, and Ruby the Crimson Stallion the Camry. I went with Roxanne because Roooooooooooxanne

I'd post a picture of a piece of shit, but I want to keep things pleasant around here. Besides, I only call it that when it's broken or in the shop.

I have an '05 GMC Envoy. It would really be inappropriate to post a picture of a huge pile of excrement, but that's what I call it all the time. Glad I didn't buy it.

Short version:
My wife (before she was my wife) owned it. We bought a new car for her because she has never owned a brand new car. I only owned a motorcycle at the time. I got the old one.

I found the finance manager's business card in the owner's manual packet so I named my car after her.

...and that's why I address my car as Christine. Not after the book, but after the finance manager.
