Q: How many Blazers have names?

Just curious, how many of you folks out there have named your trucks? Mine's 'The Fox,' and I see Britney was named (after Britney Spears?). 'My truck' and 'Blazer' don't count!

My truck is called "Goose". It was a nick name my mom gave my first truck in high school and I purchased this truck after she pasted away last year....Sorta named it in her honor. She'd be pissed if she knew how much money I'm spending on HER! LOL

the names we give our loved ones...

I'd sure like to see how Britney got her name. The Fox used to be the Desert Fox because of the color. I thought about painting it desert camo too, for a while.

My wife calls my big Blazer "Christine." Every time she gets in or out, she hurts herself.
