Do your cars have a names?

My daughter wanted to name her car, so she had a big contest on FABO, like a game show, and complete with prizes. She got over 5 pages of names, and we were going to name it Bob, we laughed so hard at that one. Just before the game was over, a long distance friend chimed in with “Sunfish”, we thought that was the perfect name. Jim won, got all the prizes, even some kitty treats for his kitties, and the grand prize was my full sized vintage Hurst sticker that I hand picked myself when I was just a kid. Great fun and she loved it. She loved that car more than bacon, almost as much as horses! I sure do miss that sweet young lady.

Our family always named our cars. My first 1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus was named “Molly” by my dad. She was brown and I wish I still had her. I named my spouses Chevy Volt “Sparky”. Why not? My 2012 Acura MDX is “D.W. the Picky Eater" (from PBS show “Arthur”) because she has to have the high octane unleaded. We tried lower octane only once and it didn’t go very well. The 1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus I now have is “Scarlet Sue”. Who doesn’t like Tor Red?
 
We've dubbed mine Old Car and my youngest son named it smiler as it makes people smile.
