START YA BASTARD - definitely shouted!!

Actually this topic reared its head earlier this year over the use of the term "truck" in relation to 4wd wagons, which just about caused an international incident with some members.
So I'm not going to add anything further to this topic :-)

I'll bite...........................................

My Patrol is called Dusty.

Due to the clouds of Black Dust she spits out of the tail pipe every now and then.

I call my ute the "Fair Maid of Perth II", after one of Ernest Giles` horses. The one that Alf Gibson disappeared with. "Fair Maid" for short.

HI mate............my GQ is just called "The Brewmobile".

Also as mentioned above TYPING LIKE THIS......indicates you are shouting at us :)

Mick ,

My car is called Priscilla ( Queen of the Desert ) because it has been so good on my three trips into the little Sandy Desert .

My Bushtracker caravan is called Elvis because he is overweight , but everybody still thinks he's great .

Cheers ,

Willie .

I call my trusty old 1985 60 series Priscilla as her first trip was the Simpson hence Priscilla queen of the desert.

My old 60 1984 was called Betsy no idea why.

All the best

sorry about all the YELLING. the kids think i am going deaf. the wife says i have selective deafness. so i guess this backs up their theory. hey. huh. pardon. you say something? can you speak up....

truth is i was too lazy to turn the caps lock off as my pain killers hadnt kicked in by then. just like now when i cant be bothered using a capital as appropriate. so i appologise in advance :)

Well my car was given a name not by me "bush taxi" its a yellow troopy and i always seem to get lost.

Saw a flat bed truck in Inverloch a couple of weeks ago . Grafted onto the back of the truck was on old style caravan emblazoned with' LOSERBAGO' ! I bet the owner was a nice bloke .

My wife called mine "Anna" and it stuck!!

Because it has a bullbar "anna" lift kit "anna" air compressor "anna" so on and so on!!!

But still needs a winch "anna" diff lock "anna" so on and so on!!

Landcruiser is Bessie
Pajero is Big George (our spare that lives in the olds garage!)
the hold holden ute was the ol' bomb ute ( and we had a song for it!!!!)

When i was little we had a tarago and when dad traded it in for the pajero he told us that he left a note in the glove box saying " Hi my name is bessie, please look after me.." it turns out that it was another one of dads "stories".....

think of a name for the navara...."Nev"

Mate of mine has a surname of "Arnott"

His Landcruiser Troopy has a nickname of "The Biscuit Tin" due to his surname. He's even gone as far as getting a sticker made up for the top of the windscreen. Still makes me laugh when I see the Arnott's roll up all three of them across the front seat and I see the Biscuit Tin sticker.

Our Nissan Patrol Turbo Diesel is called George, due to the letters on the number plate, GRJ, my husbands initials.

Moses was named after he showed a liking for clearing puddles of water in the Victorian High Country when it had some.

It was Member Crazie and his lovely partner Kir travelling behind that noticed. Kir named him Moses. Nothing to do with tablets of stone or any commandments.... ;-)))

The red Defender 110 is 'Red Rover' and the 130 is 'The Landy' both done on wheel covers by Brad from Outback Signs.

Had to slip another promo in for him.......

Hi All

I used to call the wifes Range Rover S.N.A.F.U. when things got
pear shape now and again, like getting bogged ect.

Situation Normal All F##### Up.

Not really a name but I call the Nissan the 'Troll

My 3.0 GU patrol is called the pootrol.

Last Xmas while camped at Gordon Inlet (near Bremer Bay) we drove thru some mud that stunk like fresh cow chit. We drove thru every bit of water we could find for days after that trying to get the smell out.

Jaqui loves it, calling it the pootrol that is. She hates Nissans and never lets a chance to go by to tell me I can park in handicapped zones cos I drive a Nissan.
