I usually just resort to naming other people's cars...
"Come on' get that goddamn f-in worthless piece o' s out of my way"
I actually thought about calling my car -Brubeck, since I'm not really a Brubeck, I'm a Greg, but then I figured, hell, that's pretty gay, and it's man's name, and my car's a she just like every other automobile, boat, spaceship, airplane, etc...
Anyone who names their car after a guy is a flamer or a dumbass, or both.

Haven't name the Protege yet. The F-150 is "The Beast" and my wife called the Ranger "Puddle Jumper" (I hate that name). The car has to do something memorable before it deserves a name.

My P5 is named "Cecilia"
The name came from one time I was doing something - working on my first stereo mods, I think - and I dropped a screw under the car. So I got down on my knees, and couldn't find the damn screw. I started singing to myself "Oh, Cecilia...I'm down on my knees...I'm begging you please......"
I laughed so hard at myself that the name just stuck.
A funny one about "Betsy":
My buddy had a total POS Escort - the thing cost more in oil than gas, and had no driver's side window. "Betsy" was her name.
Well, he finally junked that POS, and bought a 70-something Nova from an old timer we worked with. When he was buying it, the guy said "now take care of my Betsy" - we had a good laugh. But it gets better:
One day, the Nova wouldn't run. He's getting real pissed, because he just did some repairs that seemed to only last for two days - now she's crapped out again. After about two hours of cursing, he so pissed he slams the driver's door like a madman. The window shattered into a thousand pieces. I thought he was gonna slam me next, I was laughing so hard. So now not only did the guy have two POS cars named "Betsy", but BOTH had broken driver's side windows.
Coincidence? Fate? We may never know......
