Mine is named Hunka by a few freinds and just stuck. My 69 CS was named Kingsford after the barbeque coals because it was black primer and after time it had the top back to white then grey then at the bottom there was still some primer left that was black so it looked like a coal that was readdy to start grillin.

Henry.... My Dad called once and wanted to know how me an ol' Henry were getting along...

So I thought... that's not bad... :hmm: :)

Anyway , it's better than calling him Eddie... short for Edsel... :lol:

My truck (69 F100) could have no other name than "Jethro Jr.".

Jethro Sr. was the name of my beloved 76 bronco that I owned for over 10 years and put about 227,000 miles on.

I sold him for $4,500, a security deposit on 96 F150 that I had to return in 98.

I haven't named this one yet... just haven't had anything come up that needs to be stuck on it yet. My Harley's named Clarice, after the mule in the Disney movie, The Apple Dumpling Gang... every time they were in a hurry, she'd sit down on them... so does my kick only Harley!! Had a blazer that I called Newton... just sorta fit. My 1946 Taylorcraft (airplane) is called Spot, because the paint was cracking when I bought him and I had to shoot spots of silver on the cracks to save the fabric as long as possible.

Mines Old Blue. Not real creative, but the PO had been calling him Old Blue since before I was born so it ended up sticking ;) I usually just call him Blue and Blue-Blue as a term of endearment.......I'm only a little crazy ;) :P

My first one had no name...he second one was Old Whitey (it was a beautiful, unblemished pearl white).

My last one, the one in my gallery had several names...I called it "Law Dawg" and my wife called it "Old Trashy".

Hi
Does anyone know when they went from calling the truck the F1 to the f100?

My trucks name: Ethyl
Shortened from Cold Ethyl.

Cold Ethyl always made me think of the song "Cold Ethyl" by Alice Cooper but thats not why I named her that.

"Cold" because when I first bought her the choke didnt work and she was hard to start when the weather got chilly.

"Ethyl" because (for those of us here old enough to remember it) back in the 70s that was the top grade fuel and I always think of my old truck as sort of a dinosaur. Welp, where does fuel come from? Dinosaur's of course!

Old = Dinosaur = Extinct = fossil fuel = Ethyl

I think way too damn much about this sh*t :lol:
