Yeah, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland use "bil", but e.g. Germany and Finland went with "auto". I like etymology stuff like that, like how the name Johannes became Hans in German and John in English.

This was one of my favorite things to do with my Grandpa growing up

Go for a drive, talk, get ice cream.

It's cool that it gets a name

Icelanders really like their ice cream, whatever the weather is

I like winter icecream, and Iceland is not nearly as cold as the latitude and name might suggest.
