Named my 72 Mach1 "Jessica" after the Alman Brothers song and because I had never dated a Jessica so I had no animosity for the name. Lol Named my restored 1946 Philco fridge that's painted to match it "Clara". Named my 23 Kioti RX7320 tractor "Loretta". My Bobcat UV3400 diesel side by side is Vidalia", after the song. And my 24 WildTrak is "Betty Lou", named after the twin sister in Toby Keith's "As Good as I Once Was"...

Why does it have to have a name? It’s like Harley or sport bike riders that give their bikes a name. Or call it she or he.

I don’t believe they come sexed from the factory. Name it or refer to it as she or he and you won’t be able to really use it for what it was intended in most cases. And this creates mall crawlers.

Seen this many time with Harley and sport bike riders. Name it, sex it and you won’t be able to throw it in the ground when you need to. You won’t be able to push it to the designed limit or past it.

Can't tell if you're joking or if this is just the dumbest post ever.

I call mine 'Money Grubbing Whore' because no matter how much I spend on it, it wants more.

(joking)

I am honestly against naming vehicles. I know people like to do it. I find it strange to refer to it in any other name than 'Bronco'. Same with personalized license plates. I have OCD and anything I would be able to get on a license plate, I would get sick of seeing it. So prefer a randomly generated license plate. Plus don't want to give the DMV additional money.

Honestly, my wife names her cars and I have never named a car until my X5M when my kid was watching something that had a German character named Klaus so the bimmer was named Klaus. When I picked up the Bronco, the kid said it was blue like Gonzo, which reminded me of Dr. Gonzo (Hunter S. Thompson) and I searched if anyone made cool stickers to match my strange mind. I found one online and the rest is history.

We are boring and don't physically labeled our vehicles. My wife's Bronco is Buck.

Usually it matches the first name of the model or manufacturer and it is a male name for SUVs and a female name for cars. Some of our Japanese cars get Japanese words like Kiukuku(quick), Inu(dog for dog car), or Neko(cat for our school mascot). Current stable is Xavier XTerra and Kiukuku Infiniti Q60.

I think this actually was the reason you don't name your pig "Wilbur" or "Chris P Bacon" because it is hard to process and eat the things when time comes. Farm rules! Lol

As for the whole gender deal, its typically dudes using chick names....such as the bombers of WW2. I think its a proud tradition and I'm all for it due to that heritage.

Dude was saying that people who name their bikes/trucks/cars won't push them hard, beat them up or be able to dump the bike in order to keep themselves safe. Sounds like somebody spends too much time inside of their own thoughts.

As for naming food...it doesn't matter to me. If the aninal being raised is there to feed my family, some silly name isn't going to prevent me from processing and eating it. Some of these "men" (and I use the term loosely) need to toughen up a little bit.

The idea with motorcycles is to keep the rubber, the only parts with traction, on the pavement to brake and steer.
