U-G-L-Y. You ain’t got no alibi. You’re just ugly, ugly.” We’re sure that when the Ska band Fishbone wrote the song “Ugly” they didn’t know it would be the perfect theme song for ugly trucks. Even if you’re not familiar with the band or the song, you won’t disagree that the rigs featured on the following pages are truly ugly. This month we pay tribute to ’wheeling rigs that have been abused, overused, beat up, resurrected, resuscitated, preserved, and even worshiped.

Want your hideous 4x4 to live forever in infamy? Then send us gross photos of your ugly ride in action! Mail ’em to Ugly Readers' Rides, 4-Wheel & Off-Road, 6420 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90048-5515. Unfortunately we cannot return any of the photography we receive. But then you probably don't want to look at it again anyway.
