His name was "Dune Buggy" only because my boyfriend had started calling him that and it stuck. Before I knew it, I was saying "Hello Dune Buggy!" and "See you later Dune Buggy!" just to get a reaction from my boyfriend... He thought it was the funniest thing to see me talk to it...

Haha you're absolutely right! I'm going to make sure he knows that next time he says I'm crazy for talking to it.

but how could anyone resist talking to a beetle? i hug my steering wheel and kiss the logo before i get out of prudence if i'm going to be gone for any amount of time. i also find it difficult to not use baby talk when having a conversation with her.

Ya know, I saw your Versa's name just the other day- can't recall which thread it was. Anyhoo, I was saying to myself that Kit is a pretty cool name for your car... just discovered it- kinda late, I know.

Thanks! She's not as cool as the Kit from Knight Rider; but she's still cool in my eyes, lol

It's short for Kitty ... since she is decked out in Hello Kitty gear it seemed appropriate to name her Kit.
