Friday Topic: Does Your Bronco Have a Name?

[suparee]

It's Friday again. Let's talk about something fun. A few days ago, I was talking with a friend and realized a lot of Bronco owners give their rigs names. At the same time, a lot of people never name their vehicles at all. So what about you? Does your Bronco have a name?

If it does, let's hear it. What's the name, and is there a story behind it? Post up a photo if you've got one.

Our '22 was Belle, as in Southern Belle, our Ruby Red '25 is well, Ruby of course.

Of our 5 Broncos those were the only two with names, well, for that matter, the only vehicles we (she) ever named.

After 1.5 years, my wife just this week named my Bronco... The Mistress.

Mine is named Jesse. She is the hot pepper red, named after Jessie from Toy Story.

The truck she replaced was named Charlie.
I suppose I'm odd that I name all of my vehicles:
Trinity
Leela
Scootie Puff
Doom Bringer

Rocinante'

Rocinante is the name of Don Quixote’s scrawny, awkward horse in Miguel de Cervantes’s classic 1605 novel, Don Quixote. The name is a famous literary pun: it combines rocín (Spanish for a workhorse or broken-down nag) and ante (meaning "before" or "formerly"). It translates to "previously a workhorse."
It is also the name of the ship in RUSH's song Cygnus X-1

It is also the name of the ship in James S.A. Corey's Expanse series of books, they make references to Don Quixote in it. I'm currently half way through book 8 of 9.
