1. 1940 GMC 1000 Series
   1939 Ford Pickup
2. 1936 Ford Skyranger
   1933 Dodge A100

While it's nice that Henry Ford finally started including hydraulic brakes in 1939, the 1939 Ford Pickup has gone down in history as one of the most unfortunate looking vehicles the company ever made. The large, oval grille looked a lot like a weird mouth framed by frog eyes. It was an odd choice, and they only made it for a year.

1. Fiat Oltre
   Ford Thames Trader
2. Buick 60C
   Volvo 445

Made in the 1950s, the Volvo 445 pickup looked like the Silly Putty version of a regular pickup, stretched to weird proportions and not quite normal. The front end was elongated, all the curves were soft and bubbly, and they just gave up when it came to the bed in back.

1. Nissan Poke
   Jeep Forward Control
2. Suzuki X90
   VW Rabbit Pickup

From 1956 to 1965 the Jeep Forward Control was uglying up the roads across America with one of the most perplexing designs ever seen. The snub-nosed cab, the tacked-on grille and the overall squatty look were just weird. At least it was memorable.

1. Hummer H2 SUT
   Chevy Corvairi Rampside
2. Tempo Matador
   Pontiac Aztek

Hummers were known for being massive gas guzzlers, but the H2 SUT just didn't quite look right. The pickup version of the H2 was just so ostentatious, so bulky and pushy and all over the place. Even if it was good on gas, it would still be an eyesore.

1. 1962 Dodge A100
   1961 GMC 1000
2. 1960 Cadillac Mirage
   1959 Chevy Luv

Take a look at the front end of a '61 GMC 1000 series truck and see if you can figure out just what the heck is going on. It looks like someone is trying to hide a smaller car inside the truck, and it's peeking out over the hood. Why they made it this way is anyone's guess.

1. GMC TopKick
   Chevy Avalanche
2. Ford Excursion
   Dodge Dynamo

As a medium-duty truck, the GMC TopKick had to be kind of big, but what happened here? The truck looks like a jumped-up Transformer that got swole and then someone tried to wipe the features down off the front with a squeegee.

1. Nissan Titan
   Dodge Durango
2. Chevy C/K
   Ford F-650 Supertruck

Ford, like any truck manufacturer, makes large trucks for commercial uses, but the F-650 Supertruck was a massive oversized pickup truck for people who wanted something that looked like it was designed in Jurassic Park.

1. Dodge W-Series
   Ford Model 23
2. Chevy C/K
   International Pick Up

The Dodge W-Series was the third series of truck Dodge made after the T and the V series. The massive grille is bisected by a cross, making it look like someone tried to tie it down, and the headlights gave it a bug-eyed appearance.

1. Pontiac Aztek
   Ford Edsel
2. Chevy SSR
   Subaru Baja

The Chevy SSR failed on every front. The engine wasn't powerful enough to move the preposterously heavy frame that came in at nearly 5,000 pounds, and the retro-inspired style was something that was made fun of in nearly every car magazine and website in the world.

1. Ford Thames Trader
   Tempo Matador
2. Ssangyong Musso
   VW Transporter

If this truck looks familiar, it's because it's essentially a VW hippie bus. The Transporter model was a bus with the back chopped down to make it a pickup truck, and if it was a not particularly attractive van, it was a downright ugly truck.

1. Nissan Titan
   Suzuki X-90
2. Honda Fit
   Chevy Luv

The Suzuki X-90 was only made from 1995 to 1997, and it was just as well. This runty little beast was a mix of SUV and pickup truck on the smallest possible scale. It looked like someone had kicked a real truck in the back and forced some of the length out the front.

1. Reynolds Boughton RB44
   Tempo Matador
2. Rinspeed Tattoo
   Datsun U521

Rinspeed made the Tattoo as a concept vehicle and judging by its appearance, their concept was Oscar Mayer Wienermobile. The only reason people remember it today, aside from is baffling appearance, is because it was the first vehicle with internet access.

1. Dodge A100
   Chevy COE
2. International Harvester A-series
   Cadillac Mirage

In 1957, the International Harvester A-100 Golden Jubilee was offered with gold paint, but jubilation wasn't guaranteed. The headlights and grille worked together to make it seem like the truck was both surprised and horrified.

1. Ford Skyranger
   Chevy Avalanche
2. Fiat Oltre
   Subaru Baja

The Subaru Baja was inspired by the Subaru BRAT, another particularly ugly option Subaru had introduced a few years earlier. The Baja looked like a restyled Pontiac Aztek with a small bed and a station wagon body.

1. Honda Ridgeline
   Chevy Luv
2. Tempo Matador
   Lamborghini LM002

Sometimes called the Rambo Lambo, the Lamborghini LM002 was a major departure from the sleek and sexy cars for which the company is known. The hood is a jumble of bumps and ledges that make it look like the entire thing was conceived as a Lego project before it was finally made into a real truck.

1. Kia Forte
   Ssangyong Musso
2. Suzuki X-10
   Honda Ridgeline

The Ssangyong Musso is something of a toad-like truck that not only handled terribly, it looked like someone forgot to finish making the back while the front had a bit of a piggy aspect. Drive.co.uk said it was like trying to put lipstick on a pig, and it failed miserably.

1. 1955 Ford Model 200
   1950 Dodge A200
2. 1955 Datsun U521
   1953 Chevy COE

COE stands for Cab Over Engine, and that explains to some degree the awful design choices of the 1953 Chevy COE. It looks like it's suffering a massively swollen forehead, or maybe the grille started melting off its front. Either way, it was not a great look.

1. Toyota Tundra Stepside
   Cadillac Mirage
2. Chevy Avalanche
   Dodge Ramcharger

Many take exception to the design of the Toyota Tundra but, all things being equal, it's not a hideous truck. That said, the 2002 Tundra Stepside was just a stupid version. They put one tiny foot hole in the side of the bed, hence the name.

1. Ford Skyranger
   Dodge Rampage
2. Chrysler C-Seres
   Datsun U521

Like the Chevy El Camino and the Ford Ranchero, the Dodge Rampage was one of those half cars half pickup trucks that never really fit into either world. But at least the El Camino had a little charm to it. The Rampage had an awkward and pointy front end that made the back look even weirder.

1. Ford Skyranger
   Mitsubishi L200
2. Chevy K10
   International Harvester's D-Series

International Harvester's D-Series committed a less atrocious design crime than some trucks, and it's the crime of boring. This truck is ugly just because it looked like no one even tried to make it look good. If you ask a child to draw a pickup truck, this is what you'd get.

1. Subaru BRAT
   Cadillac Mirage
2. Honda Ridgeline
   VW Rabbit

The Subaru BRAT or Bi-drive Recreational All-terrain Transporter was an ugly car with a terrible name and for that reason, it achieved a bit of a cult status after all these years. Looks aside, they were also poorly made and were known for being rust buckets.

1. Tempo Matador
   BMW M3
2. Fiat Oltre
   Reynolds Boughton RB44

The BMW M3 is a nice-looking car but it was not a nice-looking truck. It's said that BMW employees made one of these out of a convertible model to drive around the factory. They used it for 26 years as well, apparently.

1. Reynolds Boughton RB44
   Datsun U251
2. Tempo Matador
   Fiat Oltre

The Tempo Matador is weird-looking at first glance, but if you think about it for a moment, it looks like a kissy face emoji, and that's just extra weird. These were used as military vehicles for a time and were sold under a number of names.

1. Chevy Avalanche
   Ford Thames Trader
2. Fiat Oltre
   Reynolds Boughton RB44

Fiat rolled out the Oltre at a car show in 2006, and it looked like a Hummer that was made of fondant icing. Amazingly, the inside of the Oltre was somehow even uglier than the outside, in all white and blue Playmobile style.

1. Cadillac Mirage
   Ford Edsel
2. Fiat Luna
   Buick Regal Pickup

The Cadillac Mirage was a luxury car, but for one very weird year it was also a pickup truck. Clearly inspired by Chevy's El Camino, this was a huge luxury grandpa Cadillac with a flatbed. It couldn't have made less sense.

1. GMC Sierra
   Dodge Durango
2. Chevy Avalanche
   Ford Excursion

The Chevy Avalanche was an over-designed truck with some clunky cladding that covered almost every exposed surface on the truck, making it look like it rolled right out of a post-apocalyptic movie in the 1980s.

1. Suzuki Spirit
   Isuzu 10
2. Honda Ridgeline
   Mitsubishi L200

The Mitsubishi L200 dates back to 1978 and, weirdly enough, it has been ugly the entire time. If you had to pick a worst one though, the fourth generation was a true standout. It had so many soft edges, it looked like chewed-up bubblegum.

1. Datsun U521
   Honda Fit
2. Nissan Sunny
   Suzuki X60

The Datsun U521 was a weird departure from the standard truck designs for Datsun thanks to the crew cab design that gave it an overall look of two different vehicles mashed together, hoping it would somehow work out.

1. Nissan Sunny
   Toyota Tundra
2. Honda Ridgeline
   Hyundai Legion

The Honda Ridgeline is a fairly popular truck, but it had some very buggy features. When Jalopnik wrote an article about how weird it was, they said that during a test drive, people would pull up next to them to tell them how ugly their truck was.

1. Daihatsu Wellman
   Tempo Bracer
2. Ssangyong Musso
   Dodge Ram Daytona

The Dodge Ram Daytona had a wing on the back, which is really all you need to say about the look of the thing. By all accounts, it was a good truck with a powerful Hemi engine, but it also had a wing ... on a truck.

1. Buick Sundance
   Dodge Ramcharger
2. Ford Excursion
   Chevy C/K

The Dodge Ramcharger had the option of coming with a rear bench seat and absolutely no top on it whatsoever. But whatever way it came couldn't make up for the perplexing way it sat on its wheels and the massive front grille that looked swollen.

1. Chevy C/K
   Volvo M Series
2. Holden Commodore
   Ford Thames Trader

Ford Thames Traders had some very distinctive designs in every generation, and they were all weird. If you consider the windshield a pair of glasses, then this truck clearly had a snub nose and a frowny clown mouth. Try to unsee it.

1. VW Rabbit Pickup
   Ford Ranchero
2. Pontiac Scamp
   Audi Brass

Sometimes called the VW Caddy, the VW Rabbit Pickup was front wheel drive with a 1.7 L 4-cylinder engine that was barely enough to move the thing. It also had a bare-bones interior and looked like it was designed by someone who just didn't care.

1. Corvair Rampside
   M3 Pickup
2. Reynolds Boughton RB44
   Nissan Cube

The Reynolds Boughton RB44 was released in 1989 for military service in the U.K. It weirdly looks like the "A-Team" van from the 1980s though, which is kind of cool and yet kind of disappointing at the same time since the actual "A-Team" van would be much cooler.

1. Buick Champion
   Ford Comet
2. Chevy Reliant
   Dodge A100

As a van, the Dodge A100 bore a strong resemblance to the Mystery Machine from "Scooby Doo," which made it kind of cool. When they chopped off the rear and made it a pickup truck, it looked just like a van that had been chopped into a pickup truck. Not a good look overall.

1. Colani
   MAXXcab
2. Unimog U500
   VPG MV-1

The Unimog U500 looks like something a small child might design if given carte blanche to make a truck. There isn't a single part of this truck that's in proper proportions, but despite that, these things have been in production since the 1940s.

1. Tesla Cybertruck
   Unimog U500
2. Fiat Oltre
   Hummer H2 SUT

Tesla's recently unveiled Cybertruck has a lot of amazing features and may very well be one of the best trucks on the road — electric or otherwise — if it holds up to the hype. But none of that changes the fact that this is what it looks like on purpose.

1. Ford Ranchero
   Honda Fit
2. Chevy LUV
   Dodge Reliant

The Chevy LUV's name means "light utility vehicle." It first went on sale in 1972. The name "LUV" was plastered on the side of the undersized and unimpressive vehicle. Later generations got a design overhaul, but those gen one models were not fooling anyone.
