My first 72 from a backwoods swamp in south Mississippi and had a mouse living in the ac ducts so I call it "Swamp Rat". My 2 yr old daughter and 3 yr old nephew call my other truck "Old Wreck".

stubborn old piece of ****, or other various expletives, depending on how much that particular weekend cost me in time and cash

My 3 year old son came up with the name for my truck a year ago. The first time he rode in it he said it was bumpy (the shocks were all shot in it). The next day he said he wanted to ride in "Bump-Bump" and I couldn't figure out what he was talking about. So I asked him to show me "Bump-Bump" and he quickly took me outside to the truck. From that day on that name has stuck.

GMCjunkie · 11-11-2004, 05:35 PM

Her name is "Baby Doll"

**Stocker** · 11-11-2004, 07:15 PM

I usually just refer to it as the truck, but occasionally I call it The Beast.

Back in high school everyone made fun of my truck for being orange so they called it the citrus mobile. I just call it Ol' Orange or My Truck

67pro-street · 11-11-2004, 10:18 PM

I first came up with a theme for my truck and decided on "The Hulk" and so that is how i came up with the color.

Robert1970C20rstbukt · 11-11-2004, 10:33 PM

I call mine RustBucket 'cause it damn sure is one!

Most of the time it's that but ever since my Mom saw it she called it junk.

She thinks the exhaust is too loud. Hell, my truck has a stock exhaust with a glasspack and my Dad's '85 Suburban has a dual exhaust with turbos and she thinks mine is louder.

Here's an old crappy pic of it when we pulled it to the house to work on the tranny, check out the homemade grille guard!

Awesome.................

avejoe · 11-11-2004, 10:52 PM

I call my truck Big White. It gets that name because its big and its white.

The neighbors call it "Poss". That is the phonic translation for P.O.S.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 11-11-2004, 11:12 PM

I usally refere to it as my junk... But it's not really just a name I kinda pinned on her..

silvertonguedevil · 11-11-2004, 11:29 PM

My '71 is named "Betsy" and my '72 is named "Maggie"

fleetside72 · 11-12-2004, 01:33 AM

Mine is old blue,,Because its old(72)rusted -out in spots,,and Blue(faded),therefore Old Blue.....

*dtlilly* · 11-12-2004, 02:55 AM

I call the one in my avatar "General"

The 71 GMC shortbed 4X4 I had was named "O'Reb"

bagged74 · 11-12-2004, 10:05 AM

my daughter calls this one the green meanie.

BET68 · 11-12-2004, 10:18 AM

WE CALL IT "SWEET DREAMS AND FAT CHANCE"

WOMEN NEED A REASON TO HAVE SEX --MEN JUST NEED A PLACE.

Putter · 11-12-2004, 11:31 AM

Back in the late 80's/early 90's when Sir Mix-A-Lot had that song "My Hooptie", grandma was trying to be hip and called it "Hoopie" (no letter 'T') That stuck and was later shortened to just...."HOOP".
To this day, it is "Hoop".

Hook'em · 11-12-2004, 12:05 PM

I got the truck a few months ago after my Dad died, so I always call it Dad's truck. My little girl calls it Grandpa's Truck.

I need to come up with a name that I can identify with Dad. His favorite pasttime was fishing and he used the truck in Washington to haul his boat to the lake, so I hope to come up with something to honor that.

My first thought was Bentrod, however what is a good thing in fishing and is a bad thing with trucks. Tightline may be the best alternative.

Blue Beard · 11-12-2004, 12:15 PM

Depends on how much trouble she gives me...

hotrodtroy · 11-12-2004, 12:17 PM

It's formal name is Phlegm cuz the color is a sort of green you get from a loogie you've snorked up when you have a sinus infection.

shortymac83 · 11-12-2004, 02:53 PM

The truck is named Beatrice. WHy? Good question. But, it works well with my olds' name, Jenna. That's right, named after the porn star by some friends after we crammed 25 people in her. She'll give anyone a ride. Now, put those two names together, what do you have? BJ.

OLDROCK&ROLLER · 11-12-2004, 03:15 PM

Just to aggravate the wife some I named her "Baby Doll."
