What did you name your XJ?

[vigman]

I call mine "The Beast" mostly because it looks like its been through hell and back and is still running strong.

 

[Slip Kid]

OK I posted about my XJ, now about another Jeep. My Father's MB was long ago named, by my mother "The Bleep", because when he was working on it he yelled many things that should have been bleeped out

Here she sits hiding among his new ride, mine, and the one that gave up all of its good parts to make mine work again.

I didn't realize this until reading this thread that I've actually named my Jeep. Ever since turning 200,000 miles, every morning when I start it up to leave for work, before starting, I always pat the dash once or twice and say.." I love you honey" in hopes of no leaks, ticks, knocks, CPS issues, etc. I also find myself saying the same thing when leaving work or being in remote places...so, guess my XJ's name is honey!

Her name is Mosey. We like to mosey down trails.

julia...i dont know why but it came to me and it stuck

 

[sherman08]

JEP due to the missing "E" on the front badge. It was like that when I got it, so it stuck. However most of my frends got it all wrong and would say I drove a JEP, which really kindov pissed me off. I drive a Jeep who's name is JEP, don't get it wrong.

 

[logdog]

mine gets a new name every time I wrench on it and bust my nuckles...

usually starts with something like "c%#k sucking"........then depends on how much skin was taken to determine the rest.........

I rarely call it by its adopted name, but we occasionally call it "smokey" because the Best Buy audio guy put a mounting screw through a batch of wires in the back, causing my wiring under the dash and the fuse box to smoke. Bunches of wires under the dash were just melted together, completely fried. It was quite a sight...

What else would Santa call his ride " SLEIGH ".......SANTA

So what happened as a result?

 

[Carol.92124]

Which one? My current one's name is Cali. I sold the last one in large part because I'd owned it for 6 months & never named it (it obviously wasn't meant to be!). Oh, and I was scared to drive that one off the pavement.

Before that, in no particular order:
Misty
Maxie
Blacksie
Gracie
The Cxnt (A green Country pain in the butt model)
Minnie
Angel (she was Blue, and I live in San Diego, home of the Blue Angels)
Roxand (RockSand, a full size 74 Wag)

I know I'm missing a few more, but they were usually turnovers for quick profit sale. Didn't name 'em because they were just temporary.

 

[Dundy]

Amber cuz it's the name of the paint is amber fire pearlcoat

 

[XJ=Fun]

I call mine Sno' White.....My daughter dubbed it that.LoLatriot:

 

[MahnkenVille]

So what happened as a result?

I was out of an XJ for a month, bill came to $660, with only $20 of that coming from parts. Best buy reimbursed me for everything, including my tow, install, and brand new wiring kit I had bought (the audio system wasn't harmed at all).

here's what the fuse box looked like.

 

[gbyrnes]

Ouch dude! Good thing they covered it though.

The 92 is the Gila Monster, because you use the same amount of caution when approaching either one for teh first time. The 89 went from The Jeep to The Old Jeep to The One With The Hole In The Side.
