I meant to put this picture up before now, but here is my new car. After Molly the Malibu suffered serious hail damage in October, I got a nice check from the insurance company and we put it towards a new car that starts on a more frequent basis. She's a 2003 Nissan Sentra, but I haven't settled on a name yet. So, please vote for either Sally or Sylvia as a name. Or, make your own nomination based on what she looks like:

Man, that's sexist... why does 'she' have to be a she, why can't 'she' be a he?
My vote is for Howie or Tajacamo (that will be the name of my first son)... Pronounced Ta-jock-a-mo.

Because she's MY CAR, and I'm a GIRL. And I SAID SO, Mike. Sheesh. But I like Howie. Maybe we can make that a transgender name. :) What's your car's name?

She's silver ... although when Dan found her at the used car lot, he kept telling me she was kind of a blue-ish silver, so I was trying to imagine this really freaky psychadelic color, and when I saw her I was like "That's just silver, Dan." So now this is a major point of contention in our marriage, with Dan continuing to insist that there are blue tinges to the silver. I guess it's good that we argue about relatively pointless things. Your vote has been duly noted, Charity.

CT, I'm surprised and appalled--Sylvie, silver--that's truly awful.
I vote for Sylvia--the car just looks more like a Sylvia to me. :)

Sorry, CT. I'm learning my humor doesn't translate over blog comments at all. ; )
My vote is Sylvie-sounds-like-Silver.

Woo-Hoo for Renae on the blog! I am really keeping a count, here, folks, so drag your neighbors into the debate. Hope all is well at the Grand and next door.

Awww man, I thought the Tajacamo's were gonna have it *sad*. Momar isn't bad either, I'm still sticking to my original 2 ideas though.
My car, no name as of yet, it hasn't told me... I suspect some day it will, I'll just have to be patient and quick kicking it and yelling at it to talk to me, huh? :)
Side Note: Howie, I'll allow the transgenderness of that name... or something like that.
