Name Ray's 1987 Colt Vista

“Old Paint”… for obvious reasons…

Ploppy. Or if you are familiar with the car, you can us the informal Ol’ Ploppy.

call it CONAN - is this the car he refuses to change the oil?

Something about this car reminds me of my first car. I needed a car in college because I was working on a field study, so my Dad bought me a 64 Volkswagen Bug, this was 1977 or so. I knew how to drive an automatic but this car was a stick and there were a lot of hills between my dorm and the field study. He and my brother brought it down and left it without even giving me a lesson. The name she got was “Dammit”. Somehow, I’ll bet you’ve even called this car that name, or worse, a time or two!

Last Resort LR for short because no one would be caught dead in her except if they were hauling junk!!!

Jethro

Because Jethro also had a rope for a belt.

Take any… they’re all free!

Aw, c’mon! There will be no wild rides in this jalopy. ;^)

Good Lord!
Does Ray own a sexy car?

Human life is far too short for a Colt of any variety.

I typed “fart too short” the first time. Sigh.

Love the show. Yeah… I’m a geek from GA tech.

How about just Plodder (it doesn’t look like it can gallop to me)

I was thinking it would be better named “Windows For Workgroups”.

Tommy, I think you have some great cars. Stop letting everyone put them down. If most people had bought this car new and lived in the northern part of the country, it would be rusting in a junkyard somewhere. Congrats on keeping it on the road.
By the way, are you still running the same oil in it? I think you guys said you had an experiment going on where you don’t change the oil in one of your cars to see if that actually kills it.

Peristalsis.

How is it in reverse?

This car screams “Bertha” to me.

Timmy. Timmmmayyyyy!

Vista? Doesn’t VISTA imply some kind of grand view? Maybe a more appropriate name would be “Lasix LuLu” or “Cataract Kate” or “Glaucoma Gertrude”!

Ray’s little pony wagon.

The Death Star, because it’s gray and blows up.
