Tercel Names
I thought it would be fun to hear the names we have given our Tercels. I came up with a name for my 85 the other day but I wanted to make sure no one else uses it. I want to call my tercel Terbie. Let's hear what you call yours.

Re: Tercel Names
One member's car was named by their kid- Squarepants. Got a good laugh out of that one.

Re: Tercel Names
Mine is shared by many, I'm sure: "Goldie." Prosaic and trite, I guess - but she's mine.

Re: Tercel Names
The Gold '85 I picked up in Colorado (story in "Road Trip" thread) I named Grunt, because that is the sound it seemed to make when I hit a large bump, all of the shocks were junk, you could could feel it.

Re: Tercel Names
I call the Tercel "the wagon" and my truck "the truck". My grandfather called his last car...a '55 ford..."the machine"...he was a farmer who also had tractors and so forth...but had grown up with horses? Must run in the family?
Squarepants is the perfect name for the T4WD though.

Re: Tercel Names
My present red T4wd is named Canyonero (from the simpsons)

Last Tercel (light metalic green) was Gamera - a giant radioactive Turtle that would battle godzilla

The All-trac doesn't get a name yet-has to earn it.

Re: Tercel Names
Barto, that is just not nice. Your car may get back at you for that, at the least opportune moment too.
