The first time I pulled my Little Guy Sport she had a large storage box at the front of the "front porch", where the prior owner had placed it. She was so tongue heavy that she jerked the tow vehicle something awful!

I called her "Galloping Gertie". After I got home I moved the box to the back of the porch and she has pulled fine ever since.

Without the jerking, her name was upgraded to "Gertrude", and she is my pride and joy.
The tow vehicle is a 2006 Buick Terraza that I used to borrow from my daughter, but bought last month. Now that it is mine, I can name it, too, much to the dismay of my daughter!

I thought about "Hortense", since that seems to go well with Gertrude, but my son-in-law suggested "Heathcliff", from Red Skelton's comedy sketches featuring "Gertrude and Healthcliff, a pair of cross-eyed seagulls". After reviewing a few of the sketches on You-Tube, I decided he was right. So the TV is "Heathcliff", and "Hortense" has been bestowed on my mobility scooter!
