    Ford Edsel.

    Chrysler PT Cruiser.

    Smart car.

    Nissan Cube.

    And one of those has been rebooted for this year.

    (And someone here will love at least one of them, I’m sure. This is all my (lack of) taste talking.)

      I didn’t realize they were the Aztec stablemate.

      I’m pretty sure my neighbor has one of those Buicks. It’s definitely a GM SUV of that era, in white. We’ve lived here for 8 years, and it has been sitting in the driveway the entire time that I recall. I’ve never seen it moved at all.

      I don’t think the people that own the house actually live there full time. I see them only rarely, so I think they live elsewhere, and this is their second home. They have a second bland GM SUV parked in the driveway when they are here.

      For a long time I thought the two SUVs were the exact same model, just different colors, for near-maximum blandness.

      it was actually a pretty nice car. owners, for the most part, liked their car. the laughs came from comedians, memes and shit… non-owners.

      yea. the front end of the production version was stupid, though, looking like two different cars got pancaked together. the pre-production concept from '99 had a much cleaner hood and front end. the funky ass end was functional and gave visibility in a time before backup cams became a thing.
