Naming cars

Every singe car has a number which is useful for identifying the vehicle. It would be nice to have the possibility to give a name to your car, maybe through dialogue ("Say" option), while buying it, so only the one who buys it can name it.

This way, to identify a car you don't need to use Science on it. If you move your mouse over the car, you would get a message like "you see: Buggy/Hummer/whatever", but if you Examined it, you would a message similar to "You see [car name]"

The same would happen with Car Keys.

Edit: yeah we would get a lot of stupid names, but we already got that with char names, which is worse.

Every single item and such has an id number as well, so why not name our guns with a piece of flint scratched on it or something?  It would be cool...  the way guns look would make it easy to tell difference, at least in inventory.  Maybe when not in inventory it could be "name" (gun's type name).

um, yes to the suggestion btw, pretty cool to name your car if you plan on actually keeping it around.

Yeah I know that. When you said that about giving a name to your weapon, well I thought about Lil' Jesus Mordino's knife, even though it was an unique item, technically speaking. Anyway, naming a weapon in a game when you die and re-equip at base would be pointless, in my opinion. Naming cars would be a more useful and, I think, nice feature.

Ganado:
This is a good suggestion, it can be hard to differentiate your car from someone else's if you share a faction base or a tent, etc.
