I had to post.. it may be late but since I've been mentioned already,
here it goes..

Our '82 Aswaun Brown (baby bottom brown) Westy is named T.U.R.D.
 T.U.R.D. is more than just an acronym, but rather a state of being.
 When I go to the store ( a chore I dislike ) I drive the westy so that
I can say "I'm taking a TURD" or there is the joy of walking away from
her after a long trip "I just dropped the TURD".

But what does it stand for you ask?
Totally
Unreliable (Unpredictable, Urepentant, Unloved.. it changes daily)
Recreational
Device

I still love her though..
