    question lang, anong ba ang gender convention sa pag name ng kotse? yung first car ko, a '93 Silver Corolla XE, Quicksilver ang pinangalan ko. ngayon di ko na pipapangalanan, i just refer to them by their color like "pakikuha nga yun susi ng puti".

    I think, nasa preference ng owner.

    Na introduce ako sa concept na binibigyan ng pangalan ang mga sasakyan sa mga dati kong ka-opisina. Sina natasha, delila, at iba pang pangalan na ang dating ay mga bold stars. Binigyan nila ng names dahils parang running joke/katuwaan.

    Once, natanong ko sa kaopisina ko kung bakit di na nga sinasakyan si natasha (Toyota DX)? Sagot nya, "Ayun, pinankalso na ng truck". :D Lagi na daw kasing tumitirik.

    I would not have named my car "junior"...

    parang ang pangit pakinggan...I always ask our maids before going out in the morning to dust the cars, and ask them sometimes to wash my cars...

    so if I named my car junior, then ito ang magiging conversation namin, "inday, paki pagpagan mo nga si junior, or inday, paki hugasan mo nga si junior at gagamitin ko"...hehehehe something is really wrongt...:hysterical:

    I was joking my wife that I will call the car number 2.

    "Love, sasakyan ko na si number 2 and lalabas muna kami, di ko alam kung what time uuwi."

    or she will tell me na "Ang dumi na ni mumber 2, paliguan mo naman, idamay mo na rin ang ilalim."

    Why give cars names? Wala lang. Trip lang.
