What is the name of Charley's car. What model is it? Have you ever named your car? If so What and Why and what type of car was it?

When I was in HS I used to drive my grandads old red Plymouth. It would take us on many trips to the beach.
We named it "The Clonker"! Until this day, it usually comes up in conversation when I have get-togethers with my friends.

I luv it The Beast. Sounds like a kick ass girl's ride!
Do you know the name of Charley's car?

Mayra | 6 comments I have a huge pickup truck (Dodge Ram) that I have named Big Mama. At Dana: she is safe but definitely loud as heck and intimidating on a rear view mirror! LOL

Mayra | 6 comments Charley's car is Misery, right?

Stephanie W. | 3 comments I have a red Taurus named Ruby :)


message 8: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) Misery is Charley's jeep...my mini van is OY-Vay...her plate # begins with VAY. My last car was a Dodge Monaco, it began with TDP so she was To Damn Pretty. I ALWAYS name my cars after thier plates. Thanks for the Birthday wishes Dana...we're going out to get cake :b

We have a Dodge Ram too. It's a diseal 4X4 and huge! I actually have to grab the door and jump in (for whatever reason my husband didn't get running boards). She's not named, but does get petted and praised a lot whenever the weather is bad and she's pulling everyone out of the snow!

I currently have a Dodge Durango! Could there be a correlation between women who drive Dodge and love Charley Davidson. This is super interesting! He he

Cindy you are right it is a jeep! According to fun facts on Darynda's site, her brother had a jeep, and that's where she got the idea.

Traci, petting is a show of respect and a must with those large guzzlers! How funny!

Definitely something going on with this...maybe in future books we can see Reyes in a big black Dodge!

A friend of mine had one those in a sea green color! Good times in that car too!


message 18: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) Do it in a Dodge? *snicker* I would...with Reyes.


message 19: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) Hey...I think we were destined to be friends...the
Dodge Dames :)


Traci (Mad Hatter Reads) (traci-madhatterreads) | 609 comments Mod
The Dodge Dames...I love it!


message 21: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments Sorry no Dodge...but my dream toy would be a Dodge Challenger with a Hemi. I have already picked out paint and interior colors...it is always fun to fantasize. I never named a car.
This is way off topic but since Charlie likes to name her body parts too, my boyfriend in high school referred to his manly member as the "Stanley power tool". Wonder what Charlie would name Reyes's little brain?

Oh hell, Mel, I spewed tea everywhere! Naming ones members should be an interesting topic!


message 23: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments Silly high school boys with their wishful thinking..but Reyes, oh my! Reyes understands how to utilize his member most effectively. Is it getting hot?


Traci (Mad Hatter Reads) (traci-madhatterreads) | 609 comments Mod
I so want a Dodge Charger! Ahh...maybe one day.

*Snort* "Stanley power tool" that made my night!

I had to find a computer where I could type faster, dang phone is a pain. I love the Dodge Dames for our little group! Cindy you have inspired me to write a silly rhyming ditty.

The Dodge Dames

They like them fast
They like them hot

Why?, you asked.
Cus, Reyes is in the plot

It would be in a Dodge
Steaming up windows real bad

Not in a lodge
And I'd be a heaven grad

He'd teach me all the parts
And show me how he drives

There's a special button that says start
The engine purrs and thrives

We have a name
We're called the Dodge Dames
It might sound lame
But only we can understand this bitchin game!

Alicia (amalley71) | 19 comments I have a dodge caliber and a ford explorer, both white. They don't have names but if they did it would be something cool like in the transformers. :) maybe rocket. I would love a car that could transform.

Ok, now, I know there's something going on, Alicia has a Dodge, too! It just gets better!


message 29: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) I think we're Dodgey...and Dana the poet...that's just too cool. I've always named...um...things. *evil grin* and Traci...I had a Dodge Daytona T-top. I LIKE Dodges. I've also been known to name things POC...piece of crap. }:)

Cindy (cindymac52) I will NEVER look at a guys pimped out Dodge without LMAO after that one Dana :D

Totally a sign! ROFL

Mel | 829 comments LOL...


Suzanne (Doppleganger) (doppleganger_suzanne) | 44 comments LMAO, this is too funny!

And spooky...I drive a Dodge Journey.

I named it Eggbert because the Journey's are the nerdiest of the Dodges and mine is painted eggshell white.

I had a Passat once named Hans. Hans was a real jerk!

Don'tcha just love naming your car after a friend...then cursing it out by name. People sometimes stare at you...I let a little Mona Lisa smile curve my lips, then walk away feeling MUCH better. *sigh* It's the little things...


Suzanne (Doppleganger) (doppleganger_suzanne) | 44 comments LOL, Cindy, I've done that! When I'm serious about it, I just give it the initial...I've had a few crappy electronics named 'B'. Hahaha!

But in the case of the Passat the car itself was the jerk. Hans was pretty but also unreliable, high-maintenance, and expensive. I couldn't even keep tires on Hans - had two (premature) blowouts. Jerk!
