The kids named the Kia, milly. As in throughly modern milly. Cracks me up when the four year old says it as it sort of comes out as smelly.

Talking car names

my short wheel base 4x4 toyota was called RABBIT cause it went everywhere.
my ford maverick was called "Butcherbird"
and now my toyota dualcab hi lux is also called "Butcherbird" but at times slowpoke.
and my ford mercury from the states is either YANK TANK or the beast.
need to find a proper name for it cause so many cars are called the beast.
