the 5g ranger of mine is Abbygail or Abbs. I met a beautiful sweet but tough lady with the name once. she had long black hair. so the name fit with the black paint. the 4g ranger is baby truck. simply based on size. it is the smallest vehicle i have ever daily driven. a good name fits some machines. mechanical stuff often had sort of a personality or attitude. the names reflect that by personification. cars that ive had that were less than satisfactory got names that fit. my mustang that had the engine issue brand new was verruca salt.

I call mine Ranger. Now don’t start flooding me with comments about how creative I am.
Yup.
The Ranger is called the truck.
The SUV is called the Highlander.
The Jeep Rubicon is called the Jeep.
Enough said.

Calling them brain damaged is harsh, but I have never felt the need to call an inanimate object by anything other then what it is or the model name. I don't like cats, I don't like human names given to dogs, and generally I find the idea of naming a vehicle annoying and cliché, but people are free to do whatever they want. If they want to name their truck more power to them.

This is my dog. His name is Barkley.
