"Name That Truck" Contest!

[playafly187]

Fellow staff member XPTB recently sold his '93 5.0 Mustang and picked up a lowly '89 Nissan pickup truck to replace it. Gone are the days of sports/muscle cars for XPTB (previously owned two Firebirds, a 3000 GT and a Dodge Charger). The least he can do with his latest ride is give it a fitting/catchy name, and that is where YOU come in.

http://www.ocia.net/playafly187/nissan.jpg

XPTB needs your help to come up with a catchy name for his "new" truck. For example, the above mentioned Mustang soon became known as the Rustang (since it had several mechanical problems). Other examples include a Ford Ranger being the "Danger Ranger" or the "Red Ranger". One final example comes from a friend of mine. He drove an Oldsmobile which, after about 10 wrecks, became known as the "Battlemobile".

Think of the most fitting, catchy name for XPTB's "new" Nissan pickup truck and post your entry here. There is no limit on the number of entries you can submit, so let your creative juices flow!

The winning entry will be picked by myself and XPTB at the conclusion of the contest. The winner will receive an ArcticCooling NV Silencer 5 Rev 2 Video Card Cooler:

This cooler is compatible with Nvidia Geforce 6800, GT and Ultra models in both AGP and PCI-e configurations.

Also, the winning phrase will be made into a vinyl and put on the back window of the truck, so please, let's keep all entries "clean".

The contest will begin on April 2, 2005 and will remain open until April 9, 2005. You must be 13 years or older to enter, as per our forum rules. Shipping will be paid by me to winners anywhere in the Continental U.S. OCIA.net staff and immediate family members are not eligible for entry.

[Berkut]

You can always use a simple nick like

or how about sell this truck and buy yourself Nissan Pathfinder so we could have a great time making fun of such easy to make fun of name :) <insert random name + "finder">

Long time ago friend of mine had an old 2 door Dutsun and we quickly named it "Tinkerbell". It was very small and made most obnoxious sounds, yet still kept on going!

[TIMLAW83]

well since it seems you are an Ole Miss fan, why not
the "ole misfit"
i own a late model pathfinder and it just keeps chugging, whilst guzzling gas, so these names are fitting as well
the "crap wagon"
the "scab"
the "eyesore"
for something interesting you could have "red thunder with the "th" crossed out and a "bl" over it, thereby an interesting red blunder.

is there anything wrong with it that we can use for new material?

Not really an Ole Miss fan, that's Playa who's into all that jazz.

Let's see, a better description:

The interior is a little ragged, the bed is in fact scuffed up really bad. It drives like a top, smooth, no rattling or anything. The shifter is a little old, little play in it. It also isn't as smooth as a new car hehe.

It doesn't have power steering, no power anything really. It does have a kick ass A/C and a kick ass heater. If i think of anything else i'll let ya know.

Keep those ideas flowing!
