Some cars I name. I had a VW New Beetle named Ringo, and I have an old Super Beetle named George. I tried to impart the humor in that to my son one day, he so did not get it. *sigh* I felt about 112 years old.
I used to have a Geo Prism when my son was a toddler. When we bought it, he proudly told his daycare class, "We got a new car and it's a PRISON!" LMAO! So, from then on, the poor car was forever know as The Prison.
My dad called his truck Big Blue, so that is still his name after I inherited him.
And, yes, all my cars and trucks and vans are male, too, it seems.
I really like my new Mazda 6, but he doesn't have a name. We call him The Zoom Zoom, from the TV commercials, but I'm not sure that's a name.

"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
