No. I hate even calling it a "truck". "Vehicle" tends to work most of the time. |

@ Haylands, how dare you....if I would call my Range "an inanimate object", I'm sure she will not start the next morning.

When I lived in Italy, they called all 4x4's Jeeps as well. I always found that slightly insulting because every time we went out off roading I was usually towing one of the Jeep wranglers home. I typically refer to mine as the Rover or by her proper name Priscilla. |
