I've talked to a few of my friends about the car but they said that it wasn't really that popular and didn't sell to well. I was just wondering why and the mpg the car.
The El Camino was built in the days when GM cars were very dependable and inexpensive to maintain. The fuel economy isn't great, but they are holding their value very well.
It wasn't very popular because Camaro, Monte Carlo, and Malibu/Chevelle were all being produced at the same time.
