My wife had a meeting in Monterey a couple of years ago, so both daughters and I went along. We got a Buick Rendezvous (Aztek with a Buick nose) as a rental. It was butt-ugly, but it drove great, had super interior room and was a pleasure to cruise around in - as long as you were inside it. We tried not to look at it from the outside. My daughters still talk about how ugly it was but how nice it was to ride in.
