XFD, Niceeeee.

I don't know what I'll call mine yet, probably something generic until I find a worthwhile name. My girlfriend and I decided to call it Monte or Carlos, on the generic side of things.

When I'm by my parents' my car is called "The Black One" since they have a White 06 SS.

Otherwise I just say My Car or The Monte.

I was talking it over with Lisa and we came to a conclusion that my car is no longer going to be called Lola. Its new name is now Vixen

OH MY!!

My Monte's name is Veronica. While she may not be fast, she's nice redhead with pouty lips and a nice tail.

The name was originally for my fake "mistress," something I pulled to annoy the wife one day, and it was because I don't know a Veronica. Hers was "Jared," the fire alarm inspector.

Needless to say, I was in trouble when by chance came across some tv host on an obscure channel by the name of Veronica Belmont. Name's stuck since then. Only problem, is my 6 year old refers to the car as Veronica. All I need is for her to say, "My dad rode Veronica all weekend long."

Her Saturn is simply "Vue."
My old Nissan carried bunch of names, usually ranging between Stupid POS or G.D. curse from the Gods.

LOL That is true. She doesn't know why it's called Veronica, just that it is what we named it. Thankfully, she'll likely say the car's name is Veronica, and leave it at that. I actually ran a greater risk of her telling her teacher from last year that I though she was "hot."

But yes - have to watch what you say around the little ones, especially as she repeated, word for word, our description of the Nissan.

Haha, that sounds exactly like something a certain friend of mine would do. This also definitely reminds me of how we see movies when we're younger and totally miss hidden meanings that are adult oriented until we watch them again later on.
