- —'Albert Hinkey', Cars, [[{{{3}}}]]
Albert Hinkey is one of Lightning McQueen's biggest fans, who appears in Cars. He is a long, white caravan, who often wears loads of Rust-eze decals. Albert is a 1985 Boxomatic Travel'Bout 4XL, a fictional make and model.
In Cars, Albert is seen sitting in the middle of the Motor Speedway of the South, among other caravans. He shouts encouraging words to McQueen after he makes it through the big wreck caused by Chick Hicks, and honks his horn loudly, much to the annoyance of the other caravans and a tiny blue car next to him. Later, he appears next to Larry and R.M. attending the race at the Los Angeles International Speedway, where he is amazed when he and the rest of the crowd notice Doc Hudson.Albert is still Lightning fan in Cars 3
