Another Dilemma...A fun one though..

Since buying our Painted Argosy, a 1976 model, we have called our Airstream "The Pill". Now that it's sold and gone and we have a new one we keep calling the new one the same. Or The Stream. I have done a search on names here and some are interesting, but none really stick. I know some members here just say wait it will come to you, maybe on a trip or something. It's just that old Argosy was the perfect name and everytime I use that term The pill and refer to my new silver one it doesn't feel right, plus it makes me miss my Argosy.

Oh well, if this is the only problem I have, then life must be good huh?

Shane

The Pill seems appropriate for an Argosy, but maybe not so much for an Airstream. I know I certainly wouldn't want to digest any pill that was aluminum-colored.

How about "The Silver Pill?" Makes the distinction, but also acknowledges your lost love.

How about a proper name?

Phil E. Form is a name it might corrode into.

Well, How about the "Magnet". The Silver Magnet, because everywhere I go It seems to draw people towards it.


Just throwing it out there.

That's OK Shane, someone asked about your search for a new name on that thread.

Good luck on the new name. Glad you had a great first trip, too.

Here was me thinking all along that you were calling YOURSELF "The Pill"!
