Whats the story behind your screen name?!

Ditto the interesting idea!

I entered the biology world in '08 before I knew anything about what they did. Apparently, it involves a lot of backwoods travel and having a 4x4 gets you a lot of jobs. Pretty much every single one of my fellow biologists had a Tacoma or 4Runner ("because they never break!") at the time. Since I was hauling around a lot of staking equipment and rather smelly things I decided I wanted an open bed, so a couple years ago when I could FINALLY afford it I bought myself my amazing 4x4 Taco.

So, long story short, bio = biologist, wheelin = what I do for long periods of time every day in the field.

 

That's pretty cool of a story being Indian.

 

Was listening to Backspin on Sirius XM soon after I got the Tacoma. In a song they were talking about a four point sucker. That reminded me of my Tacoma with the 4.0 V6 that's sucking a lot more gas than the 07 civic I've owned before.
User name "fourpointsucker" was not available, so I changed it to "fourpointTRD ".

 

When I first looked up the color of my truck, everything I saw called it Ice Blue Metallic. It's actually Cool Steel Metallic lol. But that's where Ice came from. And I like horses. So...there lol

 

My father was fluent in Japanese from being stationed in Tokyo at the end of WWII, so his customers (and their families) from Japan would stay with us as there were few translators around during the late 60s. It was all very AMC-MAD MEN. During dinner one night they were telling my father that I was quite the mischief maker but had a nose for avoiding trouble and injury. They said I could smell the Yakubyougami, or the evil wind, which my father said was also called the fifth wind.

 

My username was inspired by Joe Biden's quote "buy a shotgun.......buy a shotgun".

 

When I was building my first car a friend said I was hellbent to finish that hotrod. So I took that and turned it to Hellbentrodder, then shortened it to just bentrodder, which ironically that motor ended up with a few bent rods.

 

My last vehicle was red.

I like shrimps

 

Always loved Smokey and the Bandit

 

One of my kids, years ago, called me Mr. Funker one day while walking the hallway. I told my house mates (think animal house ), at the time, and they changed it to Dr. Funker. They thought is was more up standing.
My close friends still call me Funk or Funker.

My name and the motorcycle I rode. A Honda CB600F - called the Honda Hornet in Europe and the 599 in North America.

 

So like everyone else the first name I picked was taken so I started playing around to see what was taken. Anyway I typed in Taco Nation to see if someone had it. Nope it's free. And I got stuck with it. I don't like the name but don't really care too much.
