There's a stanza in a Stephen Malkmus song that goes "And the trashed young Scandi mistook me for a Swede. her slurred medieval accent was like a puddle at my feet. You could see chopped tobacco in her teeth." This made us wonder if Swedish people actually were into chewing tobacco and, by extension, if there were Swedish rednecks... because where there are rednecks there are El Caminos. Did this mean that there were Swedish El Caminos? Indeed. Here's a prime example of an XC70chero (owned by Ford) looking awesome outside the Volvo Museum. To make it better, it's being pulled by a six-wheel XC90chero. Pinch us. galleryPost('xc70chero', 3, 'This Makes Perfect Sense To Us'); galleryPost('XC90chero', 3, 'Now This Is Just Ridiculous'); As the web's finest accountants of all things-amino, we'd have to say this is the first XC70 truck that we've seen but we like it. Given its AWD setup and ultrawide B-pillar, we're seeing a...

We had a debate going on whether we should call this Le Car the Le Carmino or the El Carmino, seeing as Le and El carry the same meaning. No matter, this French fry is a dreamy vehicle no matter how you slice the name.

The report from STORC on the madness below the jump. On Saturday morning, I had a rare and exciting encounter. I was walking to my favorite taco stand to get a burrito to soak up the beer in my belly from the night before. Then, up in the distance coming towards me, could it be? Cool! It's a Le Car, that alone is nothing to special, but what is it covered in!? Well it's covered in the badges of hundreds of other cars of course!

Sadly, the Mini Cooper El Camino (or El MiniCamino) isn't a new awesome concept from Mini, but rather a one-off custom ride from Pioneer. Apparently made for the Paris Tuning Show, this truck-car conversion features a body kit from MS-Design, 18-inch alloy wheels, lowered suspension and what we imagine is a fairly powerful sound system. It even looks as though the top, which is currently supporting a lone surfboard, might actually come straight off. Following the current trend, the car sports a paint job that looks matte brown at most angles. galleryPost('MiniElCamino', 6, 'Das El MiniCamino'); Though we're not big on the paint job or the "steal my shit" iPod dock, we like the idea of a car-like ride with about four cubic feet of storage space.
