Does anyone else name their cars?
 
I used to name my cars before I got remarried ( wife thought it was stupid).
I had 1 1964 Chevy Nova called "Betsy" ( my favorite name) and a '70's Dodge called "Death Wish". The last named car was" BB" because when I bought it used it had a bumper sticker proclaiming that the driver was "Beyond Bitch". I kept the bumper sticker because the woman I bought it from was my ex-wife.

By extension does anyone name their golf cart? If so what name.

My 1997 corolla that I still have is named Lola the Corolla and has 265,000 miles on it. When merging onto I-75 I can either accelerate or have the air conditioner on, but not both.

Rusty and Rags
 
When I was a teenager my car was named Rusty...When my first wife left and I was broke again my cars name was Rags. I really hope I will not be forced to name any more cars but thank God life is not done with me yet.

I had a 1976 yellow and white hardtop OLDS named Daisy...a 1985 white and dark maroon Pontia hard top called Precious. My daughter and her children always name their cars? Kinda become a family tradition:)

Our GPS is named "Miss Smarty Pants" because she is.

I've had a Sally, a Babycakes, a POS and My Toy. Strangely, I never really named my favorite car of all time -- my Yenko Camaro was just The Yenko.

My golf carts are just carts, no name.

My GPS is Mr. Nag or the Nag.

but cart looked like an obvious name of "Tessie"

One of my cars, '94 BMW 5 series was called Brumhilda. A friend name it that and it just stuck.

First car was a 1949 Plymouth Deluxe named the Hindenberg. Over the years, I have named every car. Currently have a black Volvo named Onyx. Cart is a 2003 36 volt named Miss Emma. Poor Miss Emma is probably the slowest cart in TV when going uphill and therefore deserves the respect of the title Miss!
