Is this true?

Well as my "Camper" is a Land Rover and amongst the lovers of the Green Oval it is entirely normal to name your Landy it's called "Yorkie" on the basis of the reg number starting with YK which the more attentive amongst you will also spot is a Yorkshire registration as she (definitely a she even though it sounds a bit male) was first registered in Huddersfield.

Previous Land Rovers have been called:

Dee Dee
Eugene
Hippo
Gloria
BGB (Big Green Bus)
Nik Nak
Redex
The Pimpmobile

Motorbikes have included:

Genopidies
Rosinante
Boromir
Clouseau
Brunhilde
Fergy

Yes I know I really should get some professional help
 
Coming from the boating fraternity, it seemed natural to give a name to our MH. It is an Autocruise Pioneer Magellan and the first two letters in the reg. no. are FD: So he had to be called Ferdinand. Incidentally our satnav's female voicer is called Fanny Anne.

Naming is a practice to be encouraged I think as it gives a standard van some semblance of character.
 
My vehicles are always male. :cool:

My campervan is Frisky 2 (cos he's the 2nd Autosleeper Frisky I've owned)

The cars are Roger (cos he's a red Ibiza and that's rioja in Spanish) and Jelly (cos his number starts KY) He's also a red Ibiza but I couldn't have two cars with the same name, could I?

Used to have a motorhome called Bruce (cos sometimes he was an evil so and so, and he was big and green, named after the incredible hulk.)

Other cars have been Mickey Mouse (106) Jazz (Jazz) Zara (Xsara, but still a He) Rover (Rover!) Cedric (Civic) Zebedee (Colt) the white witch (male witch of course, reg started with WCH)

The Sat Nav is Suzie 2 (lost Suzie 1 when out walking one day) - female, but sometimes she changes sex, depending what voice is on!
 
Pee Pod

our first demountable was called the Pod. Our new one has a toilet, so Pee Pod.:D
 
Motorhome name

Our Hymer is called HORACE! Its got a chrome badge on the bonnet saying it!

Horace is a boy, and gets up to all kinds of mischief!! We tell him not to park in certain places, but he simply wont listen!! Lots of car parks say "no overnight parking" but our Horace just goes ahead and does it anyway.

He says he is taking us to Wales in a couple of weeks, and who are we to argue with him:)

Nurse....nurse......can I have my tablets now!
 
We have a little Suzuki Carry pick-up that carries a Luton box, with roll shutter for my work during the week and a Demountable Romahome camping pod when we can get away at weekends.

As the Suzuki does all of the donkey work, it’s called Donk !

Hence the username (I tried to get what i was able to have on other sites - Donk's Dad ! :D)

A friend suggested Thunderbird 2 , but i think Donk suits it better.
 
My hymer is called Trevor after a snail that a blacksmith made for me-he named the snail Trevor.

My sisters MH is called the "the bendy bus".
