Need suitable WORD for domain name -...

OK here's the problem. I currently have a few sites but am now developing a site that deals with car and motorcycle styling products and related gifts. I want a word that relates to both cars and motorcycles to form part of the domain name.

Ideas I've put on the back burner are 'wheels' as it sounds like a supplier of wheels perhaps? 'Road' possibly as it sounds like a driveway and surfacing company?

At the moment I have the word 'auto' in mind, thinking along the lines of automotive, automobilia etc, however if anyone could think of a more suitable generic name that relates to both cars and motorcycles, I'd gladly appreciate your input, as my mind has gone a complete blank on this. Remember that the word will only form part of the domain name.

The site itself will be optimised for search engines, but I am just seeking a domain name appropriate to the products, as an additional marketing tool.

Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions Andy. Will put those couple of ideas in the thought process.

Trying to find a generic name that applies to both cars and bikes is proving troublesome. Ideally need an internationally usable name, as sell quite a lot of products to the States and Australia.

Thanks for the ideas Jo Ann. Like the idea of ride, as thinking along the lines of the 'Pimp my Ride' tv program. We don't use the word 'trails' in the UK, the equivalent word is probably 'path' but the derivative of track is also in the thought process now.

The word conveyance is very upmarket, but not sure whether many hairy bikers would describe their machine as that. :) Be super for upmarket vehicles like Rolls Royce and Bentley though (but not Cadillac).... :o

That's a nice name to use on its own Inger, but due to PayPal not allowing multi named accounts for those with multiple web sites, I have to ensure part of my business name also appears in the domain name to avoid confusion to customers. Nothing worse with PayPal than finding you are paying someone totally different to the site name.

Great name though. :)

Ok, I obviously misunderstood. How about 'style', 'styled' or 'stylish'?

Unfortunately two out of those three derivatives are already taken. Will put the third one in the thought process though.

Thanks. :)
