The polar silver cab is "Grimmy" - too long an explanation for that one.

The black coupe with white interior is "Sylvester" for obvious reasons.

Our Cayenne is "Pepe", because, it's, well, Peppy (and we're Looney Tunes fans)!

I'm generally not inclined to bestow names upon inanimate objects, although I did apply names to the aircraft that I flew in the time honored tradition amongs aviators.

F-8E Crusader aka as Gunsmoke 215 (radio call sign) so it was named Gunfighter, until the CO saw it and ordered it removed. The Crusader was the last, until the F-14, to have a gun.

F-4B Phantom, as the junior pilot my "personal" airplane was the oldest, least reliable, of the lot. It was quickly named POS and was shortly thereafter lost to an engine failure.

F-4J Phantom named "Huflungdung" A long story, but I went into into the Marine Air Field at Chu Lai with a hung 750 lb bomb that choose to come off the airplane and land in the middle of the area where the latrine drums were being held pending the addition of diesel fuel and a match. So you can use your own imagination to picture the effect of a 750 lb bomb with a fuze extender on it, so that it goes off before it buries itself in the ground, landing among many drums full of latrine waste.

"He always thought the guy was a pretentious prick because he wouldn't say he was taking the "car" somewhere, he would say he was taking the "Jag"."

I concur completely. I generally hide mine in the garage. Quite a number of people I know always seem amazed when they see "My Blue Car". They don't "figger" a guy like me with a car like that.

the 68 is Betsy. No long story here, i've named all my project cars at some point. I kind of just look at the car and whatever name seems fitting and pops into my head first.
