Totally. I doodled this truck all of the time. However, I'm not sure if the 70k USD model will be equipped with external rockets and bazookas like my sketches predicted
I owned an Aztek and it was actually one of my more favorite cars because I could sleep in it if needed. I also really loved the Honda Element. I spend many a night at a beach and was very comfortable.
You know what I'm tired of? Every 4-door sedan on the road looking like the same boring bar of soap on wheels. It's gotten to the point where all major car brands are indistinguishable from each other besides small details like the grill and headlights. Nobody has any imagination anymore. You guys laughing at "ugly" cars are part of the problem, and the reason why car manufacturers won't take any risks anymore.
That's the understated truth. All you do today is add a small detail like a full width light bar in the back and that's enough to distinguish the vehicle as unique or new or whatever.
I think it's one of the reasons I like cars like the Kia Soul so much. They look… fun.
It actually has less to do with buyers and more to do with European pedestrian collision standards. Basically, modern cars are shaped to make sure that if they hit a pedestrian they'll safely roll onto the hood and off.
"In Europe, it is Nissan's second best-selling car behind the Qashqai. U.S. sales of the Juke are slowing in 2015, but the crossover sold 38,000 units in 2013 and 2014, and about 36,000 copies in 2011 and 2012.[28]"
The tent attachment really drives the point home:

I know I'm crazy but I think that looks cool as fuck.
I wonder what the difference is between those of us who like how it looks and those who think it's disgusting.
I honestly feel like it could be something out of Altered Carbon, or Cyberpunk 2077.
Id love to drive a road car that looked like this.

You don't have to be crazy man. Some people like it some people don't.
I love that look (not being sarcastic), reminds of my primary school car drawings! (still not being sarcastic, I'd totally get that car).

That's exactly what I said to my wife while watching the keynote.
That's right, the Aztek had a built-in pop-up tent for tailgating. Good memory!

The Millennium Falcon style pop out loading ramp is fun too.

I believe that title has since been taken by the Nissan Juke. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Juke#/media/File:2017_N...

That looks like they were ‘inspired’ by the love it or hate it Citroen DS:

An upvote just wasn't enough. I'm still laughing.
