Re: Does your Jeep have a name?
'Pet names' for cars are always interesting. This white/grey horse is
named Hidalgo, mainly because we go anywhere and neither of us gives a
damn what others say about it. 'Charlene' my last trophy-car was so
named because of her firery-red temperment and because she was always
getting me into trouble with the Law. Typical female.
I once owned a clapped-out 1968 Dodge Polara that I named Max, The Road
Warrior. It was an old ex-CHP cruiser equipped with an old 440-ci V-8.
It was spray-painted, had no reverse gear and only got 3 miles per
gallon. $100 cash bought him for commuting to/from work in a very bad
neighborhood. Someone shot at it one night, hitting the radiator; he
completely bled out as we roared out of Mao-Mao Land; the engine siezed
and he had to be scrapped because of that. Sad to see him go. But he
got me home in one piece, so it was worth the effort.
The big truck's name is Blue. Don't know why. He just told me one day
that this was his name, take it or leave it. Yes, machinery speaks to
me. Few know how to listen anymore.

Re: Does your Jeep have a name?
There is a guy in town. Lights in the sky talk to him. They tell him that
they are extraterrestrials, who are going to come and rescue him from this
insane planet some day. The rest of us call them "stars". I guess we have
forgotten how to listen.

I've wanted a Jeep since I was 15 and had a crush on MacGyver. So when I
finally got my Jeep in '99, I was trying to call him "Mac" in honor of the
show. But every time I said his name it came out with an "s" on the end.
So he very quickly became "Max"...
