Re: What's your trucks name ?
My dd 71 C10 is "Rain Dancer" because anytime it rains that rear end just dances about.
63 Corvair is "Dream Ryder" My old 69 C20 is "Big Betty aka Black Betty"

Re: What's your trucks name ?
My father was an english man. He has since passed away. When we were growing up we referred to him as Papa.He owned the truck before me and now I own it. it is about 90% restored. In England trucks are called Lorry's. So my ride is called "Papa"s old Lorry"

Re: What's your trucks name ?
My 81 stepside that I cobbled together from wrecked trucks is named "Frankentruck" and my grandfather's former 68 stepside truck is named "Grandtruck"

Re: What's your trucks name ?
I had neglected my truck some years back and it was covered in a green moss like stuff, so the lighter green color of the moss and the dark green of the paint made kinda of an odd 2 tome color. i just looked out the window at it one day and the name came to me Swamp Rat, later we just started to call it the Rat. in the mean time i have been called Swamp on a few occasions because i used my trucks name as a forum name when i came here.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
My trucks name is Katy. As in Katy Perry. I ordered a set of slosh tubz(pic 1) and was looking at them and they reminded me of something(pic 2). Add to that i went with a wild color combo and Katy fit her.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
No, no, no. All planes, trains and automobiles are female! A vehicle with a masculine name or non-feminine name is just too weird for me. So here's Elsie...

Re: What's your trucks name ?
The only owner on the title, was a fella' named Clarence and as stubborn and downright disorderly as the truck was, it fit. I keep a empty box of well prepared poultry from royal farms in the glove box for good luck.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Dirty Dianah
Originally christened by a coworker with that name when she heard her thump in the parking garage and set off car alarms from 1st to 6th floors (deep exhaust) and then I laid her on the ground from stock height. She was done. Blown away.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
My mother in law, whose dad purchased the truck new in 67, called this truck "Sally". Well, now that she's mine and has a new stance and 5.3/4l60 I decided she should be called "Ms. Sally"
