Hmm...I don't know about this one.
I have never named one of my cars. Um...why should I? Convince me, you-who-invented-Name-Your-Car-Day folks!
Okay, first, I wasn't able to figure out who invented this "holiday" - so I will never know their arguments for why we should name our cars.
But here are some reasons others have given:
1. Most boats are given names - are cars less important or deserving? More families have cars than boats (at least in the U.S.), so why would those families NOT name their cars?

This is probably the best boat name I've ever seen! |


4. Naming our cars gives us a sense of control over them and makes us feel safer. Many of us don't truly understand the inner workings of our vehicles, and most of us cannot fix major problems - but having naming power helps us feel better about this powerlessness!

Hmm...there are some pretty good points here. I especially like #2, because in my family we once had four Toyotas - two Camrys and two Corollas - and it was a bit absurd that we were constantly saying things like "the white Corolla" or "the silver Camry" instead of just naming them!!
