I just noticed that no one else has mentioned naming their vehicle. Maybe it's just a "Jeep Thing"...I named her Matilda because she waltzes down trails and over rocks. So...has anyone else ever named their vehicle? Any reason for the name?

Nice Jeep really.

I name all of my cars (and my computers too). My Jeep Cherokee is "Goose" because it's grey, and when I say "grey" I think of Grey Goose. Now it's been shortened to "Goose", sort of like in Top Gun. My wife's SUV is a pearl white so we call it Pearl, and my truck is white also so we call it Sugar (name by my daughter).
