Does your Interstate Have a Name?

Yes. It was nameless until I got my toad, but then both vehicles got names.

* Airstream Interstate/MB Sprinter - Kaiser, German for Emperor. Also a left-hand reference to the now-defunct Kaiser Aluminum, a show of solidarity for our aluminum Airstream brethren. The name was chosen partly because of all the vehicles I've ever owned or driven, it rules!
* Honda Fit toad - Mikado, Japanese for Emperor. Actually shortened for convenience from Mikado Kaeru-dono, "Honorable Emperor Toad" in Japanese.

My Wife named ours Stella.

She didn't know anything about Wally or his Wife. It has a nice ring to it, so it stuck.

We named our Interstate "JanEd" because our lives are a 50/50 partnership, as every marriage should be.

Does your Interstate Have a Name?

Ludi. Short for King Ludwig of Bavaria. Inspired by a German family van trip a few years back.

Getting a puppy named Piper led us to getting the AI. So it is the Pipermobile.
