Do you have a nickname for your truck? - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Palf70Step** · 01-07-2004, 08:25 PM

"Ole farm truck"
"the 70"
"daddy's old truck"

As was said on an early post of this, I think the term "Lawn Ornament" might be more appropriate

hgs_notes · 01-07-2004, 08:30 PM

it started as just My Truck, then over the years of repairs and decay, became the Broke Truck. This was from my son who at 7 years old has only seen it driven the last couple. So now I've convinced him to call it either Dads Truck or The Old Truck.

"Snort" after a backhoe in some childrens book where a bird is looking for its mother. It seemed to fit after it snorted back to life after a 20 year sleep, and again after the wreck.

My truck looks pretty rough on the outside right now, with faded green paint and rust, so my uncle started calling it the "green latrine". It kind of stuck, although it's mostly primered now.

My white Cadillac is the "porcelain piece", since apparently in my uncle's time, you would insult someone's car by calling it a toilet.

"Oh look at Mike driving up the street in that toilet!"

magoo72 · 01-08-2004, 02:31 AM

i wanna know more bout that girl in the back of the truck!!!!

grnddwn · 01-08-2004, 02:43 AM

I call mine Phuckin Truck!!!!!! quite often

500HP/SB · 01-08-2004, 03:32 AM

when i'm pissed i call it a mopar
the rest of the time its "my truck" but it's funny, all my remote controlled trucks have names and both my bikes have names too between my r/c trucks and my bikes i've gota nancy, a carla, Tori and a jasmine

WB72 · 01-08-2004, 04:06 AM

My wif has tried to call it PUDDLE JUMPER. I don't like that name and it didn't stick. Everyone in the family calls it THE ORANGE TRUCK

it is simple, and it fits.

I hate it when people who know absolutly nothing about vehicles in general call it a pumpkin. Thats when I come back with, "I know you do" (get it?) It usually takes a few seconds but they get the hint.

bobbys1967 · 01-08-2004, 04:42 AM

Some guys at that my dad works with named his the Orange Rocket. Not really because it's fast, but because he drives it like it is. Mine is called the beutiful disaster because it looks nice from a distance and I'm always working on the F'n thing.

A.P. · 01-08-2004, 09:36 AM

My family started calling my truck the black truck, but in spanish. So its called La Negra.

jamis · 01-08-2004, 10:12 AM

"The Chev" pretty much works... "Hey lets go down town and we'll take the Chev."

MITCH1914 · 01-08-2004, 12:15 PM

" THE BUCKET "

MMGOODIE · 01-08-2004, 12:36 PM

stingray72 · 01-08-2004, 03:15 PM

RNAV == RedNeck Assault Vehicle
