So I'm trying to figure out a name for her. Was thinking Orange Dream, Orange Crush or Agent Orange. Any ideas or suggestions?

Agent Orange has a real negative meaning to anyone who served in Vietnam.  Find something different. Pick something that rhymes with Orange.

Oh for cripes sake Jerry. What, didya get some on ya? Not everybody did. Is that what makes you such an ornery cantankerous sob?

"Agent" = 007   "Orange" = The beautiful flake     The name is PERFECT!

Something that ryhmes with "orange" is a toughie ...

You could take a play on the old knock-knock joke and call it "Orange You Jealous?"

Keep em comin!!  I am thinking Agent Orange sounds pretty good.

On a side note had it out on White Bear again and got 51.7 MPH out of her. With me my wife and my daughter in it. Lake was way smoother today.

My two uncles and a cousin here with me were all in Vietnam and they all thought it was a cool name.

How about following the trend in our country today where even food has the name in Spanish?

"Agente Naranja"

Now that looks cool.

Here in FL we have a lil concoction called a 'Orange Whip'. Mentioned in "the Blues Brothers" movie. May or may not contain alchohol, 'pending on what county yer in ...

Agent Orange is an awesome name. Got the most votes so far? Don't worry Jerry'll get over it once he figgers out what it means.

Btw every American should visit the Viet Nam Veterans Memorial. aka "The Wall". Arlington too. I guarantee that'd be an experience they wouldn't soon forget. I made it through Arlington okay, the wall was purty tough. Kept tryin to but couldn't manage to get any closer than 'bout 10-15 feet before breaking into tears. The "Aura" round these places will blow you away


Peace  


edit. Latigo Naranja rolls of the tongue easier ...

My son, Aidan @ "The Wall" ...
Two years ago, we visited D.C. to bury my wife's grandmother at Arlington Nat'l Cemetery.  The monuments are very moving.

Those look awesome Shawn!  Really jealous that they wouldn't fit on our trailer.  Hope someone snatches them up in a hurry, cause those make a trailer really stand out!

Bring them down if you have room.   Just not sure.

My hubs widen out after the bearing buddies too.

The wheels I put on mine were just barely too small to fit over the hubs. I just put a large sanding flapper wheel on a drill and they fit great now  ;D
