Nothing. It’s dumb to name a vehicle. Even dumber to refer it as a person or in the 3rd person.

IMHO
I'm usually with you, but my wife and I have definitely had a discussion about how it's hard to generically refer to your Jeep.

You can call your Gladiator your "truck" and be done with it, sure. But my wife drives a JL, and "car" isn't right, "SUV" doesn't roll off the tongue very easily, and saying, "my/the Jeep" sounds douchey. Calling it by the goofy name she chose is, in a very humorous sense, kind of pragmatic for us... :)

I've always named the cars I've had a some sort of sentimental connection with.
Last Camaro I bought my wife questions whether I like it or not because I haven't named it. Previous2010 Camaro showcar I called "The Mistress" because it was the only thing that would get my attention from my wife.

Gladiator is Maximus. Sorry, I had to.

I didn’t know people named a vehicle.

we call ours the Jeep, we also have a 3/4 ton crew , we call that the 3/4 ton or the white truck.

My daughter and her friends dubbed our lifted 2003 TJ Big Ed when they decided to name the vehicles they drove most.
So that evolved into Big Ted for the Gladiator (Big T+Ed)

2 years, 36,000 miles and several off road adventures, I haven't called it anything yet.
Unlike my last truck a K2500 that got called every colorful thing you can think of.

I don't really do the name thing......but I Nicknamed it "ShortBus" during the ordering process.

It's yellow and hauls the family.......funny enough, all honor students.

Not very original, but Jeep is Willy and Coach is Waylon since it’s black.

In today’s world, anybody can make the honor roll. Can be a junior in high school who can’t read but still make straight A’s and high honors.
Not fair to kids like yours who earn the recognition.

It's Slinky, it's Slinky
it's fun for a girl or a boy"
