So for 2 years I've called my Rig, a horse with no name, after going through the desert. Since it's technically my wife's, she refused to adopt the name. Finally she said the other day it shall be named, Major Tom. So now when we call our friends in their Earth Cruiser you may hear-- "this is Major Tom to Earth Control, do you hear me Earth Control.."
Oh the things we do for enjoyment while driving. LOL [emoji41]

I've been trying to come up with a name for my rig , reading through this thread got me thinking. The name will be "Burkitt" , if it wasn't for having had Burkitt lymphoma , I'm not sure I would have gotten into traveling or overlanding as much, it was a real life changer for me . I think it will be fitting! 20180903_171223.jpeg

Amazing how realizing our mortality changes our mindset. For me, a heart attack in the end of May changed my thinking from "Someday I want to..." to "Today we are going to..."

I named my rig Valkryie, after having such terrible luck with vehicles always breaking down, the first one to inspire confidence and pride deserved a name fitting of the warrior it is.

Check it out on our recent trip:

FB_IMG_1529159624113.jpg My daughter named my old Cherokee " Rumbly". I named my Harley "Quinn". My jeep had been without a name for since I bought it in 07. My wife wanted to call it "Big Sexy Blue." However I wasn't liking it to much. The other day the jeep named herself "Molle." This is because of all the time I spend looking for and buying molle gear to put in her.

My 2018 4Runner...Ulysses

A poem written by Tennyson, Ulysses:

...‘Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down:
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
