Rocinante is the name of Don Quixote's horse and just kinda fits the pic you posted out there in Arizona.

Rocín in Spanish means work-horse or low-quality horse ("nag"), but also illiterate or rough man.

As the narration describes in chapter 1 about the naming of Don Quixote's steed, "Four days were spent in thinking what name to give him, because (as he said to himself) it was not right that a horse belonging to a knight so famous, and one with such merits of his own, should be without some distinctive name, and he strove to adapt it so as to indicate what he had been before belonging to a knight-errant, and what he then was."

Whoa. That's incredibly clever. :shock:

I like it!

Short Round is cool, and I've been trying to use it, but it just hasn't clicked. Rocinante on the other hand, that's damn proper. Hmmm...

This is true, mate.

Still, it's a step closer. Real 4WD now!
