Its funny how that works. The grey '84 never got a name, even from the kids; its always been called 'The Grey Van', even when we only had one.

On the other hand the '86 has been called 'Dixie' from almost the moment that we bought her. My 23 year old and I went to Pasco, Wa to pick her up. She had been living in Dixie, Washington for many years & the name has a long association with bluegrass too.
