"It is well built,unique,artistry in motion." These can all be said about cars,seafaring ships,and steam engines. So it is not a stretch that cars should not only be given an elaborate name,but be referred to using feminine pronouns,unless it is an exception, something like "Herbie" or "General Lee." But why is this not as common as ship and train nomenclature? The answer is that people do not understand that cars are every bit as impressive as other vehicles.
Whereas a boat or a steam locomotive are known for their outside beauty,it is what is on the inside that counts for a car. The amazing engineering that makes these machines possible is taken for granted. From the suspension to the frame,to (most importantly) the engine,cars and trucks are true engineering beauty. There is a certain point when something becomes so well built that going without a name or being called "it" will simply not do. The vehicle has become art. Therefore elaborate names and referring to the mode of transportation as "her" are the solution.
To conclude,it is the marvel of engineering that is the automobile deserves to be talked about like a boat or steam locomotive because of how impressive they are. They are well built,have many of the same qualities as eachother,and should garner the same respect. So female pronouns and distinctive,individual names should be the new normal for cars. Conversely,"it" and going without a name does not do autos justice at all.
