Not exactly.

A super collider is a high energy particle accelerator.

I kind of bastardized the phrase.

My definition of super collider is heavy metal accelerator (about 13,000 lbs worth of metal).

Eventually it gets accelerated to highway speed where it's potential energy might even split atoms - or at least a Prius or Hippy bus.

Hehehe....

I understood your play on words with your initial post :-D

I just couldn't resist "taking it to the next level".

I DO like your choice :grd:

I just call mine Sarge. I was gonna call it Martha. The name sounded kinda slow and clumsy. My old LandCrusier was nicknamed 'Elsie' of course.. but as one friend pointed out .. Do not give THAT truck a girls name.

Here's Sarge BTW

:idea::idea::idea: Thanks to this and another thread giving me "food for thought", I think a worthy name for our next truck - particularly if it's a 5-Ton or larger - might be:

TESTOSTERONE

or maybe:

TESTOSTERONI

or possibly:

TESTOSTERONUS

Hmmm...
I'll have to run this by my "Soldier B" of course :D
