If Breaking Bad came on the air now, Walter White would be driving the SwastitruKKK instead of the Aztek, which was the ugliest vehicle of all time, at the time.
I always figured there was an untold backstory of WW getting that Aztek, in which he goes into the dealership, and they instantly pegged him as malleable, so they pressured him into the fugliest vehicle on the lot, that NOBODY else would even look at. But he was too weak to resist the sales pitch, so he drove home in the horrible Aztek.
The Aztek may be ugly, but at least it's functional and practical, at least for the purpose it's built for.
It may be ugly, but at least it's poorly built, unreliable and handles like a sack of meat.
Huh almost sounds like a Jeep. Maybe I'd like to drive an Aztek.
It had a tent as a back gate option. Loved that car.
Wiring harness kept melting itself though, leading to a brake failure on the way back to the dealership.
Traded it for a Mercury Mountaineer.
