how about Knight Rider lol

Knight Rider is an American television series that originally ran from September 26, 1982, to August 8, 1986. The series was broadcast on NBC and starred David Hasselhoff as Michael Knight, a high-tech modern-day knight fighting crime with the help of an advanced, artificially intelligent and nearly-indestructible car.

Sounds like an Eagle to me!

Rusty?  ;D

I'd have to disagree with Knight Rider, just because pretty much everyone knows that Knight Rider is a Trans-Am.

Yes, but a Trans Am is a Firebird, which may be distantly related to an Eagle  :hello2:

when i saw the first pic the first name to pop into my head was rusty as well. as for the Trans-Am i have one sitting in front of my house and i can say for a fact that it is nowhere near being related to our Eagles but they are still cool cars.

I find ya gotta give it a name that's part of it's personality.

Like my car had a intermitted problem, all my lights would come on/off/on...  they would 'flicker'

So my eagle is called Flicker.

I find that sort of thing helps with naming cars

That's what I was trying to say Whuntmore, passengers are good at picking up on dose things and coming up with a good name. You could say the car names its self.

Ahhh gotcha.  Yup, pass. can be good at naming cars, my wife comes up with good names for our last few cars (non eagle).

I think passengers are good at naming because they're not searching for a name - They notice something, and then it dawns on them,  "Hey call yer call THIS"

good point.
