General Motors Will Resurrect Chevy El Camino If 100,000 People Comment On A Post

General Motors marketing chief Joel Ewanick is calling you out. See, he wants to know if enough people in the United States really want the Chevrolet El Camino pickup car (truck?) of awesomeness brought back into this world. All you and 100,000 others have to do is comment on a post from Jalopnik. No joke.
Though we appreciate every comment we get, the story you need to comment on is this one from Jalopnik. Oh, don’t forget to pester Ewanick on Twitter as well.

Yeah, good luck with that. If the post was on Facebook, there might be a fighting chance.
CHEVROLET NEEDS THIS VEHICLE. THE COLORADO ISN’T SELLING AND THE NEW MODEL IS 2 YEARS AWAY. PULL THE TRIGER GM, YOU HAVE BEEN GIVING
BUICK ALL THE GREAT NEW STUFF, HELP THE BOW TIE
This is somewhat of a no brainer, a niche without competition. And the answer to the question; What’s more full than making payments on and maintaining a Collorado and a Camaro?
PS
A Cadillac varient would be like um SO GOTH, OMG
And I would probably trade my CTS and Colorado in on one. In black cherry, no wait that DIOMOND BLACK
Well put it on Facebook and advertise it on tv and maybe you would get over that 100,000 come on just here is silly
Indeed it would be silly. Which is why it’s on my Facebook page, the GM Authority Facebook page and others have joined in to get the word out to comment on Jalopnik’s post. You should too.
I wanna see El Camino’s on US streets again!
You and me both!
This brings the bigger question, however: if the El Camino makes it’s way here, I think it’s safe to say that it will be a low-volume vehicle. So it would make sense to bring the Commodore here to boost volume and increase the target market!
Isn’t this a turnaround. the thought of sending our utes to the US how hot is that you wont be disapointed. When you get use to it then try our HSV 317kw beasts the fastest utes in the world…. you will loveum. o by the way PLEASE send the Camaro here.
It’s high time GM brings back the El Camino, With new trucks getting bigger & bigger & small trucks getting, well boring. The El Camino can fit perfectly right in the middle V-6 or V-8. On a recent trip to New Zealand I got to drive a V-8 Holden Ute, I’m sold!! If GM won’t bring them over here I’m gonna import my own.
if you build it, they will come (customers)
If the El camino is made again-I’LL BE THE FIRST TO OWN ONE !
DO IT GM!! ITS A FIGHTING OPPORTUNITY… GO VIRAL!!… FACEBOOK!… TWITTER!… SKYPE!… TODAY SHOW! There is no competition with this model in the Western Hemisphere. The El Camino was a treasure of the 70’s and can be the COMEBACK model of all time, to finalize General Motors resurgence. DO IT like NIKE.
Bad news for you, the El Camino is dead as are the 1970’s.
I think you’ll find consumer interests have changed dramatically in the last 40 years, and a car like the El Camino simply doesn’t have a workable business case anymore.
You can wish and wish all you like, but it will not change global consumer interest, put more crude oil in the ground, or bring back the 1970’s no matter how hard you try.
FACT: Wishes don’t come true because you want them to. Wishes only come true on a balance sheet.
due to today’s standards my friend. people in todays united states market needs a fuel efficient truck and that takes them back and forth and helps them carry their heavy stuff around todays trucks they r strong and reliable but there’s a big issue they use a lot of gas. if u think this truck will not make it into the market…. think again in thee past the truck el camino used to be very efficient and today we need one
I am all for the return of the El Camino. My first car was a 1970 El Camino and I have owned a 1969 SS396 El Camino that is a nut and bolt restoration since 1980. It seemed the initial engineering drawings of what became the SSR was going to be the rebirth of the El Camino. Sorry,it was a failure. I have owned a 2002 Avalanche and now own a 2008 Avalanche which is 2nd to an El Camino in my heart. Just insert the next generation chevy Small block and an 8 speed automatic and the Avalanche will over change for a buck!
I want another el camino!!!!!!!!
I am a long-time Chevrolet owner/driver. The new el camino needs to be available in a V-6 (4.3) and possibly a small V-8. I want a practical vehicle that I can use to both cruise in and work. Looking forward to the new Chevrolet El Camino…
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A NEW EL CAMINO BUILT….DURL FUELE ,NATURAL GAS.ALL OF GM CARS AND TRUCKS SHOULD RUN ON DUEL FUELL…YOU WOULD SELL AS MANY AS YOU COULD BUILD
Bring back the eupwr awsomeness of his vehical there is so much you can do with it
Hello,
I am very interested in a Chevrolet El Camino for 2013. I am interested in the El Camino’s practicality and not for a vehicle that has a 464 engine in it. Produce one with a 6 cylinder or even a 4 for us Florida residence and you will have a winner.

I own and drive a 1976 Chevy El Camino. I am the original owner and have spent the last 7 years refurbishing my Camino to near showroom appearance. If you indeed brought back the El Camino, my house whole would suddenly become a two El Camino house whole. Please bring back the El Camino, I would be thrilled to own a new El Camino, as well as my as my old “Baby”.
I will trade in my 2010 F150 as soon as it hits the dealers.
bring it back, back it back
