Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

My truck's name is Nancy. It just popped in my mind when we first got her. And 70cst, those are the wheels I was talking about. Are they the Corvette Rally's or something else?

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

My trucks name is The Tank.

It all started when I first got it and it was running on a straight pipe so my mom named it the tank.

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

Here's my white truck. Sometimes I call it the white GMC. Other times the '72 or The K2500. They all fit:


I call this one the tow truck or the wrecker. I kinda like the wrecker better and say that,though:


I guess I'm not colorful when it comes to naming trucks. I just call them what they are. I have a '67 GMC project and that's what I call it,but I do have it named "Project Poor Boy" in my signature,but I don't use the name. I've had several trucks at one time: The camper,the green Blazer,the red Blazer,the gold work truck,the green work truck,the green '70,and the blue truck. I had three K/20s (actually one's the K2500 I still have) so I called them the Cheyenne Super,the Highlander,and the GMC because at the time it was the only GMC I had.

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

My truck's name is Easter Mae, after my grandmother. She was also tough and a little rough around the edges to many people, but to me she was as sweet as could be!

I call this one "Goldie" because of the color.

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

Everyone knows my truck as the "Green Thang". My daughter has always loved my old truck and from day one has called the the Green Thang. She always wanted to ride in the Green Thang whenever we went anywhere!

Her name is "Pair-a-Dice" for 2 reasons. When I first got it, it was a roll of the dice if it would start or not and it's been my "Pair-A-Dice" since day one.

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

I call mine Bucky's truck. Bucky was my dalmation dog that is now deceased, and he considered this truck his property, didn't think it should move unless he was in it.

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

My dads best friend has had an ochre 72 forever named Mustard, so when I got my 68 we kept with the condiment theme and named it Mayo based on the color. My little brother is also on here and has an olive colored 71 named Relish.

Not one to name my vehicles, others always seem do it for me anyway.
My friends call my truck "Old Blue".

I picked out the color and thought that it looked like a penny, so the name stuck.

Re: What's your truck name and why. Pics?

This is Rosie.
When I went to pick her up from the PO, I had AC/DC's song "Whole Lotta Rosie" stuck in my head. I thought the lyrics fit.
"She ain't exactly pretty
Ain't exactly small
Forty-two, thirty-nine, fifty-six
You could say she's got it all"

My wife calls her "The Girlfriend".

My wife calls mine "Ellie-Mae" because the first time she rode in it she says she felt like a "Beverly Hillbilly" but that was when it was still rusted blue in color.
