| TheGreaser wrote I think the name was meant to invoke the voyage's place from Part III of Gulliver's Travels, a book written in 1726 by the Anglo-Irish writer Jonathan Swift. Think about it, that word existed longer before the profanity. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulliver's_Travels Well, according to the article, Jonathan Swift was fluent in Spanish so he might or might not done it on purpose. Is still a long shot, but anyway, doesn't really matter what came first, the name is still a golden spot in the bad-sounding Spanish words, along with the Mitsubishi Pajero and the Nissan Moco, so name a few. | |

| As a Spaniard, the name never fails to amaze me. |
