Fortunately, it'd be useless. ANFO, on its own, is useless if you do not have a booster charge, and primary explosives to initiate that booster charge. For reliable effect, it is also preferable to have low density AN (much fertilizer grade AN is high density). ANNM is better, but more expensive. And even ANFO would cost more than $20 if you wanted a large quantity. (just 100kg of AN fertilizer would cost more)
Of course, all of these problems can be overcome (McVeigh trial documents if you're looking for some practical guidance to make your own truck bomb), but it's a little bit more complicated than you seem to think.
