Pet name for trailer

Since Pahaska/John Irwin brought it up, what do you affectionately call your silver bullet? All my huntin' buddies call mine the "Chicken Coop". This is because they have called me "Chicken Man" for 24 yrs. after I dumped 4 marinated chicken breasts off the grill and into the fire. I dug them out, cleaned them off, placed them back on the grill which promptly dumped them back into the fire. You've never seen 6 guys standing around me laughing so hard in your entire life.

Pet name

Kewl~
When I bought my A/S, it's family named it the "Silver Turtle" and, thus it has been always known as such. When you go over hills, it seems as if you're slower than a turtle. lol

trailer name

Timely thread

We were just having this discussion the other day, We feel our trailer needs a name. We so far have come up with:

Platinum Palace
O'Neill Leprican
Fred the Duck (our 7 year old's choice)

I'll let you know what we end up with.

I know we want to keep this a family oriented site but couldn't help but tell this. I had been working all day on the inside of the Excella 500. I had been working on a loose wire to the water pump, cleaning the walls/ceiling, vacuuming etc. and when it got dark, around 7:30 p.m. or so, I closed the trailer door but didn't lock it. I had planned to go back inside and do more work. Around 8:30 p.m. I went back inside, turned the front light on, pulled the service manual out and looked at it. After a few minutes I got up, turned toward the door to go out but something caught my eye further down the hallway. It looked like clothing on the floor. I walked to the middle of the trailer and saw clothing on the dresser and on the floor. I looked to the left on the bed and saw my sleeping bag rolled out and some hair coming out of the top of the bag. I thought the worse for a split second since I do have 3 teenagers at the house but I knew they were inside watching TV. I pulled the top of the sleeping bag down and a 16 yr. old boy from the next street and his girlfriend were inside. I calmly asked them to get dressed after I left and not to go inside the trailer again. I keep the door locked 24/7 because of this incident but when I told my hunting buddies the story, they died laughing and recommended we change the name from Chicken Coop to The Love Shack. I think I will keep Chicken Coop thank you.

We had a bad experience with air conditioning on our first trip out on a 98+ degree day. I have threatened to name ours the "Baked Potato".

My daughter likes to call ours "Hailstorm". Although we've never driven through a hailstorm with it and I dare say I hope we never do.

Hi All,
We named our 2001 34' "Enterprise" since we live in it full time and run our sales and marketing business from the trailer.
