Default Re: Truck gender?

Funny this came up now...

My girlfriend keeps trying to give my truck a name. It's always a female name. One that I would associate with an unattractive woman like Gertrude or Bertha.
I reluctantly suggested Rosy because of John Steinbeck naming his truck Rosinante(and it makes me think of Rosy the riveter). She didn't like it...
I last suggested Ethel because it fit her theme and at least had a historical automotive connection (fill 'er up with Ethyl!) She liked it but honestly I hope it doesn't stick...
