Name of Truck

I am trying to decide on a name for my truck...
My short list: Nadine, Norma, Penny, Dangit or Darth. Oh maybe Clyde.

I know some of you have given you trucks a name, Let's hear them? Thx

Re: Name of Truck

A picture of the truck. Seeing it helps with naming.

My 64 is still nameless, short of being called 64.

Re: Name of Truck

When I first brought it into the mix... 75 Sub 454, 79 short 4x4 with overkill 406, it was called "My Putt Putt" via the stock 283. Now it has a 406 and TKO 600 I have called it Busted Budget. It has been mentioned as What the hay, hell no, dammm. Rusto mod, dangerous, obnoxious, seriously? Country Fried
Had a sticker on 81 said Total Redneck Racing

Re: Name of Truck

I vote for Norma but she's gotta have a second name included with it like maybe "Norma Jean"?

Re: Name of Truck

Mine is "The Pusher" which isn't very unique as it turns out because there are at least two trucks here with that same name.
