I’m on my sixth, or so, Little Blackie. No matter what style or color.

It’s a movie reference...any guesses?

My previous car was Millie the Magnificent and before her was Lulu the Lovely.

Nothing to do with the snack cakes or any real person.

It's like John Q Public 'cept my car is female. An unassuming little car.

But don't tell her that. She thinks she's fancy.

You're a CCR fan.

But SuzyQ prefers Nirvana.

$3112 to fix mine (not counting the tow and rental car) so I don't think I should say until my systolic pressure drops below 200.

no particular reason. Just called her that one day and it stuck.

My current minivan- a 1997 Plymouth Voyager. She's old enough to drink now!

I always name my cars and have names for all of the family members cars. They are like part of the family!

But it was a twin of yours. Same color, stripes, long bed and wheels. Yours looks like a year or two newer than my 94 though based on the dash design. That was a great truck, I just never named it.

.....The brand is Roper. I call him Stanley!

It’s a fifteen-year-old Mitsubishi Lancer that I bought about ten years ago for four grand. I’ve put probably that much into it over the last decade in repairs, which isn’t too bad. It’s got a quarter of a million miles on it and it still goes.

It’s a bit gutless, has some rattles and odd behaviors, occasionally does this weird jumping thing when I’m stopped, and leaks a fair amount of oil — but that said it still runs!

Story-- I inherited it from my late grandfather. HE always kept the keys on a moose keychain. So it was named after the keychain.

(2010 Subaru Legacy)

A 2006 Scion xB, a little box on wheels. It's been a great car. No major work needed other than scheduled maintenance. Its boxy shape makes it great for hauling stuff. My only complaint is low ground clearance.

all the cars in the Scion line that I’ve driven is that the turning radius is really enormous for such small cars. It doesn’t match what I’d expect from the short wheelbase.

Bulletproof little machines, though.

our little Toyota Prius C - The first truly reliable car I have ever had.

but the car never answers

I think it was a '97.

My current car is named "Lemon".

Runs like a charm. I keep her well maintained.

They are good vehicles. I owned larger trucks previous to owning the Ranger, and the Ranger's more compact size suited me better.

Good on you for taking such good care of her.

I purchased Christine brand new in 2003. She's now a fifteen year old Grand Prix with 144k miles.

At this moment, I'm not sure how much life she has left in her. I really wish she could repair herself and roll back the mileage.
