The previous owner called my 74 Fiona, cause the kid that owned it looked and smelt like Shrek. I call it Fenway.

Cheyenne,

When there is an exact same thread running and another member points that out to you they are helping out everyone by allowing expansion on a topic for members old and new. There is nothing wrong with Beastie pointing out this thread to you. This thread is now merged.

My wife calls mine a money pit. but the thing is, i dont spend that much money on it. When I do, she complains im wasting money, but when she rides in it, she asks when this is fixed or when is that is fixed. Its better than a new truck payment since i dont drive it that much.

I had planned on calling my '83 c10 rusty, but I couldn't handle just driving it as-is (my original plan).  The name no longer fits, so maybe 'ol blue?  dunno.

my 1980 c-30 crew cab dually is called the pig. when my dad drove the truck home it had a hole in the radiator that would leak under pressure so he drove with the radiator cap loose. well as we were on the way home it overheated the 366 big block 8 times and it sucked down water like a pig. and also since it sucks down gas still with the new heart we had to transplant in which is also a 366 we call the truck the pig. the truck is grey and can do anything you ask of it ive had to pull my moms 18 wheeler with trailer out of the ditch up hill cause she got stuck in the mud. this is why my trucks called the pig. ive seen many good names but i think that no matter what happens to my truck we will still have it known as the pig.

Bluto!

It's 2-tone blue w/ blue interior & is a bit a brute like Bluto from the old Popeye cartoon... or it could be named for John Belushi's character in Animal House... either works! ;D

Awesome thread! 

My '77 is "Scotty" (Scottsdale badge).  Kind of obvious but it was named by my sister-in-law and just stuck.

My old '83 K5 was called "Stinky".  Favorite quote: "Pew, Stinky stinks!"

Its a blue crew cab, 4x4, dually......

Not officially named yet, but I also refer to it as my "welding truck" too
