Sure, I admit that my even cares enough to take pride in the vehicle she drives. The scooters do look nice, you do great work twisting wrenches, but have no compassion for your builds. They are just hunks of metal I guess.
We can agree to disagree and leave it at that, or you can bicker back at me, but realize that you are the only one that bothered to post here with your "silly" or "goofy" attitude. Have a great evening, and please keep up the good work on your bicycles.

Re: Does your truck have a name?

White ghost or "THE GHOST" for short. Named by my son and his buddies the first time I owned it. They would put the 3 seats in and all pile in and go to a high school football game. Back in 98 or 99. Decided 14 years later that the name still fits!!

Naming them is part of the fun though.

The Smoker, because it could really throw out a cloud there for a while after I bought it.

Re: Does your truck have a name?

I have a couple of kids and a mom who lives in Orlando, I used to take the family to sea world quite often. The truck is as large as a whale and has what appears to be dorsal fins on the cab doors so I guess that's why I started calling my truck "Shamu"

Re: Does your truck have a name?

My original '66 C-10 I had in 1974 was named "Jack". Really don't know why, but it stuck.
My new '66 hasn't been named yet, but I've been thinking of "Jackson" (Jack's son) or maybe a Scott version.. McJack (as the Mc usually meant "son of" in Gaelic).

Had a Mazda pickup that was named "The Mazdarati".
Of course the ironhead Sportster was 'The Sporty"

Re: Does your truck have a name?

My '64 LB stepside is called Abigail, mainly cause she has her elegant moments, yet has a helluva time running due to a sh*tty carb, so many other names are called in the process of trying to restart her in Washington traffic.

The Ghost isn't scary, but the reflection in the glass, maybe.
