2020 HD and Pontiac Aztek

[aha1987]

So for the last several weeks, I’ve been trying to figure out what the new HD front end reminded me of. It dawned on me yesterday that it resembles the front end of the Pontiac Aztek. I think I might be ruined on the new HD

Stop it.  Now you're ruining Aztecs for me!

That sure is funny.

The Aztek was ahead of its time.

Top Gear did a great episode about the Pontiac Aztek, calling it the worst car ever made.

This made me sad, so congrats on having at least one of each reaction to your post.  Well done!

Pontiac Engineering Team...

We're going to divide the engineering team in half. You guys start at the front and we'll start at the back. We'll meet in the middle.

What could go wrong?

Don't you dare throw my Pontiac Aztek under the mud, LOL!!! I actually owned a 2002 for about 4 years. I got it my senior year of high school. Believe it or not the vehicle was very dependable and AWD system was great on the Aztek. I live in PA, so I would know. It was also perfect for tailgating for my first two years of college. I ended up selling it to my brother who needed a secondary vehicle and he ran it to 224k on it. I am agreeing with the earlier comment the styling was just ahead of its time, haha.

Haha, I actually don't mind the Aztek... the Aztek front end fits a small SUV much better than on a truck. I know the comparison isn't exact but they do share some small similarities. Now the new HD Highcountry on the other hand looks good in my opinion.

I thought the Chrysler PT Cruiser was once the Worst Vehicle Ever made?

Other than the wood framed Yugo of the 80s!

Good friends of the family bought an Aztec years ago. I’ve looked at them weirdly since.

If GM was a few years, even a decade later with the Aztek, Rendezvous, and the Vue, they would have been on top of the world due to the Crossover craze.
