Title: what to name Flick's side kick?
Post by: Toogoofy317 on May 30, 2012, 07:31:09 PM
Tomorrow is going to be bath day and I'm still trying to figure out a name for the new car. Was thinking maybe Quark he seems a little quirky? I  :dunno_black:  Everyone says he is really "cute" but again  :dunno_black:

I guess putting my two guys together will give more of an idea tomorrow!

"Chopp" - Its my favorite nick name for a small car - its a tamil word for the little toys for kids, like the tiny little tea set for girls etc ...
Now The marati word for that same thing is "Bathukli" ...

Or to put it in modern american terms - how about "tonka"

Cool.

I'm surprised no one else has said these yet, considering we're talking about a sidekick for Flick...Ralphie or Schwartz. Of course, I'm referencing a movie that was made before many of our board members were born...

You see that's the advantage of calling it a "chopp" - It can be lil blue chopp, not to be confused with Lil blue chopper.

Chopp just means toy in a loose translation, it means "thimble sized toy utensils" in exact translation. It also goes well if you're pleading with it ... please chopp dont give up on me ... or "please moo lets get a chopp moo" as in I am pleading with my wife to get a chopp ...

Cool.

I think I'm going to have to get to know him more. Kinda like I did with sunshine probably took 6 months 'til I got her habits. But, keep 'em coming. First impressions hmmm, the little booger isn't an off the line type of guy but once he gets going you can't even tell your doing 70 until you look at the speedo. He is an automatic 1.8 and good on gas mileage for a car. I absolutely love the hatch back too. Changing a tail light? PITA gotta take the whole taillight off the vehicle!

Oh, the F150 was one of those daunting tasks for the headlight on 1 side, dont remmeber left I think ... till I saw that it had these 2 pull off tabs that let that whole thing just drop out. Swapped the right and I told my wife i'll be working changing the left one for 3-4 hours, 5 mins later she sees me sitting in the living room with a beer (which I opened as I started work as I always do ... cant work without being armed with beer) and about to watch TV. She goes, huh gave up already ... I said nope, fixed. Nuff said.

Cool.

those jobs are fun. or if like me. ( small ) i can route my hands in many of the vehicles that require removal of the headlights and fish the bulbs out and then back in. 5 minutes versus an hour. did that for a friend. after 5 minutes, im sitting on porch. he comes back outside, ( lazy as hell) i said got tired of waiting for your ass so i went ahead and finished it. my frintier was a complete removal of tail light cluster as well. i keep a cheap screwdriver set in cars for this purpose. err kept. said screwdriver set in the cars

mary, if you decide to enhance the audio of hte versa, ( which is decent already tbh)  a small subwoofer (8" to 10" firing straight up so it hits glass and gope forward) will work wonders. not talking like drown out the neighbourhood with your music loud. but enough where everything is heard, in its full range. IIRC youve got 25-30ish amperes to play with before taxing the alternator on that car. ( similar to my truck. which was 25 spare. )
