William – Part 8 of Why People Name Their Cars After Women (and Sometimes Men)

William is the only car named after a man and that’s because he was a widower.  William is a 1962 Cadillac Sedan de Ville.  He is totally original and totally in much better shape than I am.  He has only been rained on three times in his life and his wipers have never been used.  And he has never been driven in the rain or snow or even on a day where there was a chance.  He floats down the road like a land yacht should.  He even has factory installed cruise.  I obtained William after my father passed away in 2014, as William was his pride and joy.  Today William is the only non Packard I have for now.  My son Ben says he wants William some day.  I am hoping that day will not come for a fairly long time.
