What's in a name? (SERIOUS DON'T LOOK!)
 

Well now that I have your attention I feel it is time that my new addition ('98 Metro LSi) final gets the respect it deserves. I've been focused on breaking the 50MPG mark but it seems like I can't get there. I believe the main problem is that my wonderful vehicle doesn't have an identity!! I KNOW SHOCKING! By not having a moniker I have seen a total slacking in stature (might be the suspension), no sense of prestige (could be that I forgot to wash it), and finally a complete loss of spirit (might be the grill block...). These all lead to reduced achievement at the gas pump. I NEED HELP!! Please help my Metro find it's identity in a name suitable of vehicle that is faster than a plodding turtle, more powerful than the XFi, able to leap small gas stations in single coast!! Please hurry my MPG is getting worse by the second I need help EcoModder!!!

SPAMZILLA!!!

BTW, nice whitewalls. :p ;) :D

Oh, goodie, a contest... :cool:

Truthfully, your car is not bad, soo...

I'd christen it:

1. "FunkJumper" (FunkSkunk's Puddle Jumper)
   
   
2. "NB4AM" (Not Bad For A Metro)
   
   Or simply...
   
   
3. "Not Bad" (All implications)

FunkSkunk -

Gray Ghost - Maybe too common

GMG => Gun Metal Geo => GuMeGe

ITIC => I Think I Can (i.e. the little train that could)

TLGTC => The Little Geo That Could

Geo Quattro - you could have a Schlick *or* an Audi Badge somewhere on the car. You could use the "shaving" metaphor for all the mods you are doing. Shaving MPG doesn't work, but shaving l/km down bit by bit does work.

FSCK ?
No it isn't to pass the forum's filter, it's the Unix' FileSystem-ChecK
I let FunkSkunk find the meaning of CK. Calvin Klein is forgotten ;)

Denis, the penguin.

Silver Streak! :D

Greased sputum! :)

I believe that a car will reveal its name to you. As you drive it and learn its personality, its preferred moniker will become apparent. It's all very zen like and mystical. ;)
Just ask Olivia.
