Bring a Trailer After two decades, maybe the Aztek is so uncool it's cool? Perhaps not to most people, but its sheer notoriety could make it collectible. This example is in excellent shape, and it comes with the accessory tent and pop-out cooler.A familiar saying of unknown origin is "Tragedy plus time equals comedy." It probably wasn't terribly funny to you when you fell in the fountain at a cousin's wedding, but 10 years later, you can always crack up the kids' table at a family get-together by telling the story.
