    Do you name your RCs?

    Me and my dad were talking one day and decided we should name our RC's. I named mine "Trusty Rusty" (bet you can guess what car it is) and my dad named his stampede "Pede o' Pain". Do you name yours?

    I call mine 'T-Rex', the name came from when i was driving my Summit I found a small toy T-Rex in the ground and glued it to my roof, oh and because it destroys anything in its path

    I tend to say "mine" for most things since Nearly everything in the garage belongs to me :>
    Sister - "Hey whats that thing in the garage?"
    Me - "DON'T TOUCH IT, IT'S MINE!!"
    Sister - "You don't even know what it is!"

    Oddly enough, my wife buys jewelry from a company called "Belcho USA"
    How eloquent is that? Glitzy, glamorous jewelry by BELCHO.
    Thats how my shelf queen got it's name. it too is glitzy and Glamorous.

    As for Melvin, I just like the name Melvin. Good gear head name. Melvin.
    If I had a son, I would name him Melvin. I dont have a son, I have a daughter
    so we named her Mel.....anie. Melanie. The wife said there's no flippin way we're
    naming our baby girl Melvin. So there you have it, in a nutshell.

    I don't name my RC's, I name the mailboxes and curbs that broke them, usually something like "2 a-arms and a bulkhead".
    I like turtles.
