Cool Re: What's your trucks name ?

My C/10's name is Zooey as in Zooey Deschanel because the story goes that some people from a town called Hollywood, California came to Nebraska to shoot some film for the Jim Carey movie Yes Man. And were passing through the tiny community on the east side of Lincoln called Walton. And saw Zooey (the truck) sitting beside somebody's building and went asking around about her and, if they could use her in a scene. So the production company paid the p.o. like $200 to drive the truck like a quarter mile. It was supposed to be in a restaurant scene. And the truck was supposed to be just some random truck driving down the street. As of now she wasn't used in the final production or, any deleted scenes either. It had no brakes at the time but, they still paid him to drive it. I've got papers to verify that it happened. And I've always wanted to name my truck but, couldn't think of a name for her and, then Zooey Deschanel came to me from the movie and, it sounds like the perfect name to me.
