Butchershop Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 So, my lovely bride just asked the name of our new Jeep Thingy. I assured her it was not a 'Thing'y. But, apparently, I need to name it. Anyway, thought I'd check on the names used out there. Some clever posters on here, so lets have 'em. What'd'ya name your Jeep? I have heard PJ - as in (PEE-J) = JEEP backwards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogmorgo Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 My teenaged sister gave mine a name the day I drove it home, but I don't remember what it was. Anthony, maybe...? I mostly remember being ticked at her for taking the liberty. I've never really thought that cars should get names... the people who build them already did that. That being said, I've called mine Blurple a few times, because, well, it is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyav8r Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Mine was originally "The Ugly Wife" because that's what my bride called it. I've since re-named it "Blood, Sweat and Tears". Blood because of all the skinned knuckles and cuts. Sweat - well that's obvious if you own a Comanche. And Tears for the times you just want to cry out of frustration when you've fixed that darned widget five times and it still doesn't work right. We all must be masochists!

Also have "the van" (camper/tow rig) and Sparkles, my daughter's Cherokee. In the past: Da Bomb (84 Old 98) The Blue Bomb (1972/74/79/80/81 Ford F100, titled as a 79) "The Prizm" (1990 Geo Prizm) Bourbon (1994 Chevy Suburban) Booger (1994 Cherokee) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 What package might that be? :hmm: It was a Hunter Green Metallic Green Eliminator. Hunter Green was only available in the Eliminator package as a mid/late build '92 order. Seeing as there were only 952 MJ's made from Jan 1 to end production in '92... Not many got made. The green one I had was the only one known to exist. That, and for a short period of time, the latest build date on Comanche Club. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neohic Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Seems as though the only vehicles of mine that I was naming were the ones that I ended up selling and regretted later. I stopped naming them... now I've got too many vehicles. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadinator Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Usually it's just the truck, but when my father-in-law owned it, he called it the old mule. I still call it that from time to time. Like above, I have called it all kinds of names in anger... :fs1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backdraft Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 My Eliminator doesnt have a name unless you consider Eliminator its name. Like Cody, usually I call it a worthless POS. I guess it needs a womans name since it takes away most of my time and all of my money. The kids truck we named "Phoenix" because like the mythical bird, we are building a truck out of the ashes of two dead jeeps. Also the paint its going to get is similar to the color of said mythical bird (MangoTango). Cars Ive named in the past as a kid: 1981 Chevy Citation. "The Silver Bullit" So named because it was a huge ugly steaming pile of crap (got it as punishment for killing my 86 Comanche when I was 16), but it was fast as could be. Fast enough that my friends said it would have outran Steve McQueen. I hated that car. 1982 Cadillac Coupe de Ville. "The Brewmobile" Named because it always seemed to pull beer hauling duty. Always had a ton of beer in the trunk on the weekends for parties. There were more, but Ive rambled long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87Warrior Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 The 92 is known as 'Rusty', although its not entirely accurate anymore. The 86 is simply known as 'Comanche' or 'Heavy Four'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past, I've heard to many people saying, "he runs real good!" as compared to the flip side of, "she needs a little work". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of plastic surgery style. "She" could always use a little tuck here and a little lift there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
