Aztec: 1. An ancient Mexican civilization 2. A small community in New Mexico, 3. San Diego State University's spirit leader. Aztek: Pontiac's latest design exploration and their entry into the "rugged vehicle" market.
The 2001 Pontiac Aztek's bold angles and multi-purpose design have sent shivers and shakes through the automotive industry's spine -- of pleasure, horror, or confusion. Is it a mobile-tent/camper/SUV/2-wheel drive minivan-type car? Available in all-wheel and front-wheel drive versions, the Aztek defies established definitions and is the first vehicle that falls into the "all-purpose" category.
