Reply #32 - 09/21/09 at 14:42:09 Initially I referred to my '05 LS as One Lung, but a friend re-christened her Iron Lung while we were discussing my 600km Ride in rain and freezing temps to fetch and bring her home from her original owner ... the moniker stuck ... literally!

When it's acting up in damp weather when I'm trying to get home from work it's "Now listen up cueball!"

Haven't found a name for it, yet.

Which for me is odd...I'm in the habit of naming my vehicles. Years ago, I had Blazing Saddles, my '73 Pinto Squire wagon from Texas...eight years old when I got it; and it saw me through the bad economy of that time.

Later, I had Enko-San, my Geo Metro..."Enko" is Japanese for "Stalled Car" and the -san is a Japanese courtesy..."Honorable Stalled Car."

I still own Eugene the Jeep...though he's in retirement in a storage unit somewhere, until I find either a buyer or the interest to attend to his many needs. These days, my cage is Moby, my "mini"-van...the Great Red Whale.

But, no name has come to me regarding my Savage.

my cage is a dodge stratus 4 door with the smaller 4 banger...gets horrible gas mileage for a 2.4l....must be cuz the cars too big for the engine lol

anyways, i call it the STRATUS-FEAR or the cracker mobile...on account that is is just as pale as i am and has walmart hubs....they don't spin btw....i'm not that cool Grin

funny how i used to be a car freak...now it's gotta be from detroit way before 1980 for me to even look! and yet, i have to scope out every bike to see what they've done to it....more often then not....it's just dealer installed crap...we don't have that problem =]
