So the 2013 Ford C-Max is the only Autobot in your fleet?
I see an X-wing squad leader, a Starfleet officer, and Dora the explorer.

You guys mean some people don't name their cars ???
- 1996 4Runner: Baba Yaga because of the way she looks
- 2010 535xi E61: The Grandmaster, because every time I try fixing it it's always five moves ahead of me.
- The Santa Fe is The Econosuv, haven't named the Sportage yet because it's too new, but it will probably be the Berserker if the plate sticks.

I haven't named my cars, except for a Ford F250 that I bought from a drywall guy. One of his workers scratched "Julio" on the hood, so that's what I call her. I know Julio is a boy's name but cars are girls, so she's a she.
Seems more women name their cars than men in the U.S..
But the Pontiac dealership that took my buddies Safari wagon with a 455 in trade kept it to run parts and called it “Millenium Falcon.”

My girls do - I don’t repeat them but if she says Betty needs gas - I know which one it is …
I have not named a car, but my Garmin is Karen.
I use the British voice on mine, so it's named Daphne after the "Frasier" character
As for the Fleet...the Sonata is just "the Sonata". The Cobalt is "Morpheus", the Dakota is "Red", and the Ranger is "Dad's Truck". 20 years after I transferred the title into my name and it's still his truck.
Oh of course we do!

I never named a vehicle.
A pal bought a used, plum colored Saturn.
His sons associated the hue with kindergarten coloring and nicknamed it "the child molester".
The name stuck but the lads quickly became uncomfortable with the name they had created.
I didn't know any of this, and when I saw it for the first time, I was appalled by the cigarette ashes all over the front carpeting, etc.
I called it "the rolling ashtray" and the previous name was instantly forgotten.

My wife's Outback is "Frank".
My old Focus wagon, was the "Blue Bomber".
The Impreza is called the "Silly Sedan". I can see how people do like to drive them as they are a touch quieter and its nice having a rear window that doesn't get dirty, but the loss of utility is annoying.
I need to trade it in for a wagon.
