We all called our RCL Landies "gunjeeps" whilst we were in service in the 60s, although we were acutely aware that they were Land Rovers.
Have you ever written with a "biro" or perhaps Hoovered with a vaccuum cleaner. Both are similar generalisations and cases of brand names being accepted into everyday life. A bit like "googling" something today.

Thank You.. Captain Pedantic.

Stuff the jeep bit, me being from the young crowd would like to know where he thinks the ipod jack is... thats an original cassette radio, you can't integrate an ipod into that!! Hhmph!
