I think I speak for everyone here when I say "QWYK, your truck should be called POS"

Seriously though, my truck is named Magoo. Long story...

"Merge King"

Everybody just seems really polite and gets out of the way when this two tons of rusty iron with bad paint starts crossing the lane divider.

I like like it!!

In the 80's I drove a 1988 4x4 with a euro style license plate velcroed to the front custom bumper (center of bumper was nearly 4.5' high.) This would would get the folks in front of me to move over - FAST - can you make it out? Cops did not like this much :-)

I had named that truck "Thumper". The rear license plate read 88 THMPR...

My wife calls my truck the other women or my misstress but I refer to her as the money swallowing black hole (still wouldnt trade her for anything tho).

When I bought my truck in 1976 , I named it " old blue " and had a front license plate made that I still have ! The reason for the name was it's color and it seemed appropriate !

Bad Bettie, after my wife's grandma, a WWII riveter.

I call mine Betsy, after the Beach Boys song. It came from Nebraska and traveled west, went slow and fast, was neglected and rebuilt. Just like the lyrics of the song say.

My wife said mine has the "Mater" look, so we call it Mater. I'm not sure where she gets that, though.
