    like nicknames? what would they be?

    do you think the names should be male or female or it doesnt matter.

    What would your car/s nickname be?

    We call it "Macho". My in-laws have a nickname for their own vehicle: "Pogi". Their previous ride, an owner-type jeep, was called "Dayunyor".

    I'm thinking of naming our cars like Labradors since one is yellow, the other is black, and both are very reliable cars, both MB, and both love adventures!

    Yung Corolla namin na 1992 eh askal hehehe

    yes. our tsikots have nicks. the seemingly trivial effort of choosing names for the cars build a bit of emotional attachment. helps us take care of our rides better.

    i tend to give my cars humorous names (botchok, buknoy). wifey on the other hand calls her rides aris(totle) and plato.

    Contour, Sonata, Laser.

    Naming cars or any objects...... Personally I think it's a little nutty. But different people, different tastes......

    been giving names to my cars ever since i can remember and i look at them as females ...different cars have different characters, even for 2 exactly the same models (year, mileage, etc)..and you have to handle each one differently...names make my ride a personal thing and that way you really take good care of them...also your ride won't likely fail on you...yun lang nga may danger of being too attached which makes it difficult to let go of them later on ..but surely you'll get a higher resale value when the time to move on comes

    We called them
    Nissan Sentra = Green
    Nissan Sentra = Red
    Vios = Vios

    Even if we already sold Green, if we see her on the road my son would exclaim, "Ay si Green o!!"
