Ice Cream Tuck / Wagon

Non-PRO English to Spanish Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Hello - Buenos Dias,

How do you say "Ice cream truck" or "Ice cream wagon" (British English "Ice cream van") in Spanish? Thanks for any help . I appreciate all answers, even the ones I don't vote for.

Thank you - Muchas gracias

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Special thanks to daniesperanza. Thanks also to Adriana and Christian. I voted for daniesperanza's answer because it seems to be the most commonly used form even according to the internet. However, I believe that the answers Adriana and Christian gave are essentially correct too. Some Puerto Ricans use "Guaguita de mantecado" but I wanted to know what the standard Spanish term for it is too. Thanks again everybody for your help. Sincerely, Brian Costello Seattle, Wa. "
