History

The Aztek (2001–2005) was an early crossover SUV on GM's U-body minivan platform, pitched at active buyers with options like a removable cooler console and a tent/air-mattress camping package with a built-in compressor.

Its controversial, heavily clad styling made it a punchline — topping more than one 'ugliest car of all time' list — but it found an unlikely second life as Walter White's vehicle in Breaking Bad, which turned it into a cult collectible.
