Now listen here bucko, the Pontiac Aztek might be the (now second) ugliest thing to ever wander the Earth on wheels but at least it was a competent, if expensive, crossover.
This monstrosity has no saving grace other than telling other people that the driver sucks.
Wait where does the Fiat Multipla fit in? The one with the moobs
Let's not forget about the Ford Pinto!
And whatever car the person reading this drives.
Hey :( </3 Don't be mean to Truck! I love my little '03 Ford Ranger.
He's got power windows and power locks and air conditioning, and he's been so good to me and totally low-maintenance even after years of total neglect during my depression phase. I firmly believe he will be with me forever. I've been told he's got a bit of "late 90s Ford Explorer"-face, but I think it's handsome.
I souped him up myself with some nice fresh upper control arms and ball joints after he was getting a little squeaky in the suspension region, and I think he really liked it. I pat him on the steering wheel and call him a good truck every time he starts up perfectly (every time!!)
And by god, he's a thousand times better than those Cybertrucks. I always laugh a bit when I see them (rarely, fortunately) and tell Truck I'm happy he's so much better than those low-poly hunks of junk.
