    No, but my wife called my bright red 2004 Civic EX 5spd coupe "Chola." When going over the Cascades she would yell out "Rapido Chola, Rapido"

    First vehicle : "Blue". Because it was a blue F150.
    2nd: "Hulk" because it was a green expedition, a college roommate had a little green Honda or something, so that was "Bruce Banner".
    3rd: "Hermes". Got a speeding ticket my first day I owned my Jetta. Drove it from CA to WA that day, then up to AK after Xmas.
    1st bike: "Thumper" 1981 Suzuki 650
    2nd bike: we don't talk about that bike, minivan turned left in front of me during the 1 month I owned it....
    4th: Can't remember what I called my Honda Pilot after I sold the Jetta to help with medical bills from the 2nd bike lol. Probably something along the lines "Holy shit Fairbanks is too damn cold"
    3rd bike: "Trooper", because it's a Vstrom (this time with abs, see:bike 2), and the biggest forum for those is Strom trooper. Longest vehicle I've ever owned. Since 2012 lol.
    5th: "Scooby" the Subie
    6th: "Obama" because I ended up getting a different Escape from the one I wanted. Thank God that's over with (lemon law, not politics, but now that I mention it... ;p)
    7th: "J-Lo" because it's a Taco. (Google "Taco flavored kisses": you're welcome)

    Vehicle:
    2018 TRD Sport, Inferno, w/tech package
    Factory Blackout package, Soft roll up bed cover, Cheap seat covers, Front and rear dash cam, AVS in channel vent visors
    2015 Hot Lava Rav4 is called Baymax, because when our kids saw the picture of all the airbags, they said it protects like Baymax.

    2018 Inferno Tacoma is called Torch, because that's what came up on a Transformers name generator.

    2010 Yamaha Roadstar 1700cc motorcycle is called Beast, because its the biggest bike I have had so far.

    ***UPDATE***

    HERE IT IS! I hadn’t seen it for a while but I saw it parked on the street today. Also it’s a Fusion, not a Focus like I erroneously stated before.
