Cars are mostly called her because.......

I'll have to do that!! Bluevista was telling me I need to add the list of Olds' I've had to my signature too. Being technologically challenged, I have to wait for my daughter to have time to help me! She gets soooo frustrated with me!

The Golden Girls...
A couple are below - the first shows how they both glow in a late fall sunset...
While not Linda Vaughn (Miss Hurst Golden Shifter), Lady #2's colors are very similar!

I think her watch or braclelet scratched your ladies mirror. That's how cat fights begin.
Ya better get her down off the back seat before dark and the bugs come out. Or she's gonna look like a happy biker [bugs on her teeth]

Those are fightin words right there!!! My husband tells everyone -"she won't let me within 3 feet of the friggin car, and I bought it for her"!! Another of his favorites - "yea, she took down our wedding picture, and replaced it with a picture of the Cutlass"!! And my daughter has nerve enough to say, "Mom, it's just a CAR"...
No no, she's not just a car... she is a 72 Cutlass beautiful work of art!!!!!

Gotta love the passion, another reason why we call them "She"

Yeah what he said!!! I am VERY VERY passionate about my car!!! If that guy changin her oil the other night would have even THOUGHT about leaning into those new grilles, I'd have had the tire iron out.... hell hath no fury....

Because...if it's got **** or tires, it's going to cost you money... Most languages have masculine and feminine words. Some also have masculine, feminin and neutral...as in the boys are playing (Mas)...the girls are playing (fem) or the children are playing (Neu).
With that being said.....I have no frickin' idea why we call a car "she". Probably because as males we like to take care of things, and are expected to take care of our women, our cars, our house, our lawn etc. Women probably call a car "she" because it has become acceptable. Anyway right now I'll go turn on the big screen and sit down in front of HER and watch the hockey game.

Not sure if she is understanding yet, but I will find out later (usually the hard way)...
The common phrase to the new grooms: "If she ain't happy, YOU ain't happy. And if she's not happy long enough, you won't be happy with only half of your stuff..."
BTW - great job on the sig pictures!
She should have bit the other one then - not the hand that restores her...

Just VERY HARD to find! Dallas is the one of the worst places to look - and the years of trial and error really suk. Therefore I never tried the marriage thing. (I prefer to keep my $$...)
Good vintage cars are much easier for me to find... And if they were not exactly what I wanted, I could at least shape them into what I want! And if I no longer want them, I could just place a free ad on craigslist!
I can see in the future that TX may create drive-through divorse parlors, using the old fast food joints that have gone vacant...

Good one Rob! I have a few of those trial and error events under my belt too! My husband and daughter get so jealous of my car... and the cat... but I can talk to them, vent to them, talk about them, cry on them, etc.. and I don't have to worry about hurting their feelings, pizzing them off... sometimes easier to get along with than humans!! They don't talk back, or yell, though sometimes the cat will turn around and sit there with his back to me - full of CATITUDE! shut up and feed me lady.....

Me - "Watch out for the toothpick in that hamburger."
Her - "What toothpick?" <having downed most in three bites..>
Hehe... Most pets are like that...

About 30 years ago I had a '66 GTO that I referred to as a "she", the girl that I was dating at the time asked why I did that, to which I replied "cuz if she gives me any trouble, I'll get rid of her". There was a sudden chill in the air.
