I like them all. But like in the hauling my cab instance a long bed or a flatbed would have been a lot more convenient.

Short bed's and El Camino's are the best looking trucks in my who gives a rats rear end opinion. And an El Camino is a truck. They might be Chevelle's but they're still trucks. They aren't a coupe, they aren't a sedan. They are a truck. A very cool truck. And I know the later models were Malibu's. But that was just GM dropping the Chevelle name. They used to be Chevelle Malibu's.
At least that's what I remember.

This is not an El Camino. It's a Chevelle. No bed. Although I kind of wish it had one. Perhaps with a camper with some liquor in it.
