What's In A Name

[cincygreg]

Got my new ride just yesterday, and now it's time to give it a name. (2007 Yaris ). What to name my new toy?!??!

Think think think....

Ok, let's break it down.
It's blue, 4 doors, and this time it's a car instead of a truck.
Wait it's a car!
The movie cars is out right now. Doesnt look like a lightning though. HMMMMMMM [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]
Let's see, Cars is a Pixar Movie ands so was "the incredibles". Ok, now it's "blazin blue" and who was "blazin" amongst the incredibles?
Well that would be Dash!
Yes, DASH! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Small, quick, blazin it all fits.
I herebye name it Dash!

Had to say goodbye to Annie (my truck) but that's ok. She and I went though a lot together, and I got a lot of good years out of her.
Now, it's Dash' time!

A week after I bought it we didn't merely have rainy weekends, we had hurricanes, one after another (2004: Charley, Frances, Jeanne. All within 6 weeks and each one on a weekend) so naturally I named the car "Hurricane".

Thanks GL! Yeah, it's 35-40 mpg.

You are now and will always be a ragtop man GL, and that fits your beach persona 100%! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

You know, it's funny but nothing personalises a car more than setting the presets on the radio. Kinda gives an overview of what you listen to to make your ride more enjoyable. Your background music or chat of choice that you prefer to listen to as you drive. Totally set for your own enjoyment. You decide which gets which spot and whether it goes by who or what you listen to most or merely going up the dial starting with the lower numbered stations and going higher. Yoiu own private space filled with whatever you choose to listen to all preset so one touch can take you to whatever kind of music or converstaion you wanna hear.
Kinda makes it more of your own once you get them all set up.
makes your little space on the road more personalized, more to your tastes and likes. And, you can change it to and fro with just one finger,

I listen to tapes mostly myself, too much talking on the radio. And my favorite station switched to a talk radio format.

Here's my dream car, although not necessarily this color. White with a navy blue top and interior would be nice:

Nice very nice.

Kind of a "distinguished" ride.

Need to get yourself a place fitting of a ride like that.

Maybe like "Wayne Manor" LOL!

Actually, you gotta be stylin to ride in something like that.

My new car is actually pacific blue [img]wink.gif[/img]

"Blazin" just sounded more Dashish LOL!

Kind of makes it a beach like car since it's "Pacific Blue"

Definitely not where I live now LOL. My old swing music would find quite a nice home in that kind of car. "Summer Wind" would never have sounded so good! Well nobody won the lotto last night so it's $40 million Saturday. 4 people in my office apparently play in a pool and got 4 of 6 numbers. They were shocked when I told them I have gotten 4 of 6 numbers 15x now since Thanksgiving 2003. Just getting past the 4th number has eluded me so far...

I like the Yaris commercials, very clever the one with the spider made out of gas pump nozzels and it drives over it and sucks the gas out..

The same local dealership where I copied the Excalibur from recently had this beauty too. It's sold already (for like $30,000). I would change the color to white with that blue roof it would be one awesome Florida ride:
