Ahh, I see. Well one of the beautiful things in life is that we get to grow up and send our kids to Catholic school. . . but the nuns are not teaching at the school my daughter goes to /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif Fortunately we have a very involved, and very scary principal who makes a pretty darn good substitute for a nun /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

If only the school year was running, I would send "KIOTI" into the class to get the official pronounciation.

The word Coyote is Spanish and the e on the end is not silent, so let's not drop it just yet! Pronounced Coy O tay in the Spanish language, I'll never understand how we English speakers got Ki o tee out of it other than that we simply dropped the first 'O' out.

I didn't realize there was a logo. Well, now I know what to call it. If they have a coyote logo, I wonder why they didn't just name them "Coyote"?

Maybe it's not possible for a word like coyote to be trademarked. I seem to remember something about not being able to use certain words as a brand name for trademark, but I may be dreaming.

I have a Korean acquaintance- next time I see her I'll see if theres a literal meaning in their language.

Call your dealer and hear how they pronounce it when they answer the phone.
