Mine WAS Bad @#$%& Betty because she is a Mazda with a turbo engine and she is bad ass. But I traded her in after I damaged her for a mazda without the turbo engine and now the new one has no name. It hasn't come to me.

Names for my vehicles.. The BEAST is my moving truck, that used to be an entertainment industry lighting truck. But other than that, I don't think I've named a vehicle in 40 years..

I have a Chevy Spark that I call "Spanky." But my Prius Hybrid, I call "Hoss"! My Prius is much more powerful than the Mustang I had.

Shopping Arkansas, Louisiana, & Mississippi.

I would add a ‘roo.’ Zipstaroo.

I name all my cars so much so that all my friends even refer to my car by its name. Currently, I have a Toyota Camry named Edward, previously it was a Prius named Percy, a black dodge charger names Lancelot du Luc, I had a Saturn named Marvin, a Malibu named Raphael, a Cavalier named Alvin and the original a Buick named Quincy.

My high school car was the Beast, and I was always looking for a beauty.

My Jeep is Betty, the little commuter car is Veronica. When I got my Jeep, I drove her off the lot and to the place I was to meet up with my other half. I had started to ponder a name and then let it go because, too hard! Then Black Betty by Ramjam came on. So Betty it was.

I inherited my car so she’s “Secondhand Rose” or Rosie after the song.

My great uncle travelled in the mountains for years and called his car "Leapin' Lena".
