When Your Cars Name Describes You, Rex Havens

I think it is fair to say that we all have had several automobiles over time. We attach nicknames to these rides. Now, that nickname can change overtime as well. The good, bad, and ugly to be so cliché ! Some examples of my past rides include, "Toy" For my 85 Toyota 4 wheel drive truck." Ole Blue " for my Blue Datsun 210. Now these were the good names.

Here is one that started out good but changed over time. " Red" for my 71 Chevy truck . I ended up calling it " Puff the Magic Dragon " ! It Smoked all the time … Lol !

What nicknames did you attach to yours ? Today is a great day to share this.....

NATIONAL NAME YOUR CAR DAY

National Name Your Car Day on October 2nd encourages a special commitment to your wheels. It’s time to give your trusty automobile what it really needs, a name.

Make a day of it. Take the ol’ jalopy out for a spin, a nice wash, and shine and then just maybe you will select a signature meant for one so reliable. After all, you spend all that time together and take such good care of each other, isn’t it time to give those four wheels a name?
