Those are my 3 Azteks at 9:33 Owned 4 in total and still drive one to this day! They're much better than people originally gave them credit for. So many great features about these Azteks. Back turns into a tent. Has a lot of storage area inside. Heads up display, sunroof, power seats, power mirrors, 9 speaker stereo system with steering wheel and rear controls, removable cooler, fold up and out rear seats, air ride suspension (some models) with rear air compressor, multiple power outlets and much more. People thought they looked ugly then but have a cool look now. VT247

I actually have an Aztek - and its my second one. My first I bought at an auction for $1500 and I drove that for 6 years. When that one died last year I got another given to me as a gift. It was a picture car on American Gods (last seen season 2 episode 2) and she has been in three movies since then. (I am an Assistant Director for Film) - I love my Aztek. She's getting older now but still has all the bells and whistles :0)

IDK what's going on, but as an avid outdoorsman, the moment I heard that the Aztek came standard with a tent and air mattress that could be quickly installed in the back of the vehicle it became so much cooler to me. I don't get how just that one feature doesn't immediately tell people that this thing doesn't deserve the hate it gets. I guess too many people in the US, or just from my generation, feel they are "too good" for camping or something? I grew up camping in tents with family, so having one that will always stay dry, that has a built in air mattress, and even has a removable cooler to keep said tent stocked with cool drinks makes this a _much more appealing proposition than anything at the time, as well as more appealing than most crossovers that have come out since then. From what I've seen, even the companies that do "Overlander Conversions" don't have any offerings that are this cheap and simple for those of us that (unfortunately) genuinely are at risk of having to live out of our cars in the near future.

My first car at 17 years old was a 2005 Pontiac Aztek. I got it solely because of Breaking Bad and despite its mechanical issues, it was a FUN car to drive around in. The space, the features, the comfortable seats. People hated it for its looks but I actually didn’t mind it. The Aztek will always have a special place in my heart and to this day whenever I see one on the road it makes me smile. Miss my Pontiac Aztek named Felina… but I don’t miss the mechanic bills

long time ago me and some friends were skating around in a cul de sac when we all heard this insanely loud noise of pure destruction coming our way we all had no idea what it was. It was a mix between chalk board screech and a train ripping through the ground. moments later we see a pontiac aztek pushing itself down the road with one whole wheel missing as it dug into the pavement the dude had drove over 4 miles home with 3 wheels leaving a trail that tore the crap out of the ground.

My mom got one in 2003. Despite doing absolutely zero maintenance aside from the rare oil change, (ignoring my protests to take better care of it) it lasted until 2019 and about 230k miles(370,000 km) before the transmission finally gave out. I have no idea how it lasted that long.
@nitroxylictv 2 жыл бұрын
It only being a trans means it could have lasted for another 200k with a rebuild at some point. If they are actually that reliable I might get one. I like how they marketed them to outdoors people because I am actually starting to like the Aztek.

I actually owned its cousin the Buick Rendezvous for a few years. It was super boring by comparison to the Aztek, but it got through snow quite well. I had the FWD version, but it was pretty good on gas and hauled all my stuff. I even slept in it at events a couple of times. All around a decent car.
