Ahhhhh....

The reason I asked is that I have a Zen/ Spiritual view of naming ones vehicle. Any monilker can do in a pinch ie: greased lighting, silver bullet, blue flash, white lightning, etc. It's like naming a dog Spot.
But I believe that as one spends more time driving and working on one's truck, that truck will eventually name itself.
Sometimes the name isn't always what we'd like. It can be a bit negative. Worse the original name may morph into another as the the vehicle ages and changes with the mods we install, the places we go, and even as we ourselves change.
So my suggestion is rather than try to come up with a name, let time be the guide.

Trust me, your truck is in no hurry to have a name, or to blurt one out. It waits to see if you will find it among the grease, antifreeze, and assorted fasteners.

Yes, to many that sounds like a lot of malarky.

Silver bullet then?
