I hope someone can do this for me PUHLEEZE! How do you say ' I love my truck ' in Latin. see more.....?

In '94, my mother bought for herself a little red Toyota pick up truck. This was her little pride and joy and no one was allowed to drive it unless absolutely necessary. She had a little farm and a small truck was needed for various reasons. She had taken Latin when Latin was a required course in school but she wanted to say " I love my truck" in Latin and had to call Univ. of Fla. to have someone translate for her so she could tell the world how she felt about her truck by making a little bumper sticker . She was told to put 'Me amo Currem,' and she did , but that meant I love my chariot, so that has been on it since. . . Sept. of '08 she ped away at the ripe old age of 93 and gave her beloved little red truck to me. I want to make sure that is the best way to translate and I went to a translation website and there were too many words to pick for just one word and I really want to say it correctly. Too bad I never took Latin. Even then, I am not sure how to say it. I did see a latin word for truck, but how can that be? I believe the word they used was actually a verb as in to truck something around from one place to another. I dont know. Take a shot O very intelligent people out there and tell me what YOU would put on the back of the truck . I am honoring my mother by doing this.. and can you believe it only has 102,000 miles on it and is in perfect condition!. I can just imagine I might be opening a can of worms on this hope not, but I just want it to say ' I love my truck" or as close as one can get. Mucho appreciado fellow Yahooians, lol, and give it your best shot. TYVM, Lauren
