This thing is as ugly as the Aztec
I am amazed that there isn't the same backlash going on with the Avalanche as there is with the Aztec. This truck is so unappealing to look at, I wonder what everybody at Chevy was drinking when they gave the go ahead to produce the Avalanche.
The truck has zero aerodynamics, it's like a brick wall coming down the road. The front facia makes me want to vomit. What's up with all the plastic cladding? And those wheel wells, ugh! You do NOT cut a wheel well straight like that, EVER. It looks like they tried to achieve some kind of Cadillac skirt look. I could go on..really, I could. This truck is hideous. Magazines seem to rave about the damn thing. Where they bad mouth the Aztec, they don't on the Avalanche, it's like they were paid off by Chevy. They just sit and rave about all of the little features that will make your life easier. Like that back glass and section that opens up to "transform it from a pick-up to an SUV." I can tell already how old that would get switching it back and forth. It is not a feature that many would use. I don't care if this truck gave me great fellatio, I would not be caught dead in it. Oh well, that's enough ranting. ThaDRD |

ehhhh, its not quite up to par with the ugliness that oozes from every crack in the aztec's molded plastic:apuke: I really dont think it looks THAT bad... It looks like more like an older car on steroids than a pickup or an SUV.

Hey ThaDRD, welcome to AF!!!
 I agree with pretty much everything you said. :apuke: As for why the Avalanche is not experiencing the backlash the Aztek did (does), I just think we've focused and spent all out all our ire on the Aztek, and the Avalanche seems like a copy-ugly-cat. GM's really pushing for the Most Hideous Awards nowadays.

Well, I just recently saw one. This thing is huge. I don't know, doesn't look that bad. The Aztec is in a category all it's own. This at least projects a utalitarian image, workhorse if you will. But that's just me.

I hated them at first, but they are slowly starting to grow on me...if you mod the hell out of them.

I don't think they look that bad. I've seen everal pics of lifted ones that really look good. Some other mods I've seen done to them that look good are painting the plastic cladding to match the paint, but takes some work to get it to look right, and Line-X (spray in bedliner) sprayed on the cladding.

FUGLY!
Aztek, PT Cruiser, Avalanche = Pinto, Gremlin, Mustang II.
Geeez... Just because 70's clothes came back doesn't mean we want the dud cars too! Although the Aztek, PT Cruiser, and Avalanche look good when heavily modded, that is no excuse for poor design. That is like saying your girlfriend would look good after lots of plastic surgery (hardly a compliment). What are they thinking?

Re:Avalanche
I think this has an excellent design. The Avalanche is a sharp looking truckmodded or not. I really like the pick-up to an SUV feature. I dont think this truck is ugly at all.

:apuke: IMO Trucks raised that much cause way to many dangers for the driver and other vehicles on the road, I think they should be outlawed on public roadways. If your doing it for show then cool by all means jack it up!
