Miles Overview
The El Camino is Chevrolet's car-based pickup, blending a sedan's ride with a truck's bed for a unique utility that's hard to find elsewhere. The cabin is pure 1980s Chevy: a simple bench seat, vinyl floors, and a dashboard that feels like it belongs in a Malibu. The bed is short but useful for hauling furniture or mulch, though the payload and towing are modest compared to a full-size truck. The El Camino is the only trim offered this year, so you get the 5.0L V8 and a bed that's ready for weekend projects. Its 5.0L V8 makes a deep, rumbling noise at idle and pulls strongly from a stop, though it's paired with a three-speed automatic that shifts unhurriedly.
