She or He

Why is it that when/if guys name/refer to their car it is 99.9% female. I called by Ford Explorer Helen, and my e90 is Eve. Is this reverse for females?

Long tradition. Vessels are named after women. Ships are the obvious example... but cars are our modern vessels.

My last two cars were guys, but my e90 is a girl

The e90 is sexy and curvaceous

mine baby's going to be a girl.
If it were a boy, i'd name him Maximus Decimus Meridius (and he will have his revenge, this model(e90) or the next

)
