Eh, it doesn't look like they copied at all. Other then the general shape, nothing is similar.
The big difference?
That is hideous, in the SUV mom type way. Not the cool way. |

| IMO i think its looks good, if they did copy it, they did a good job of it.... but like i said thats my opinion, if i had that kind of money, i'd sport one... especially with the multi sun roofs |

I thought the same thing until I actually saw one in person. Then I came to the conclusion that Ford failed to even come close to the xB. The "Flex" just hurts the eyes and looks like a damn tug boat on the road. In the months that it's been out...I've seen only one on the road! The rest are parked on the dealer lot :rofl: |

Maybe Ford and Chevy can change things around by copying the Japanese! |

I would roll the Edge over the xb if it was in the same price range. Definetly wouldn't pay $30k for it though.
A local news station has some car guy named Ed Wallace review new vehicles every friday. He said this was probably the best vehicle Ford has built (excluding their F-series trucks). It really is a nice car but the price point is not. |

It looks like they threw a cover on a truck. And ewwwww! That front end! No thought put in it at all - Yeuck! The steering wheel and climate/radio control layout looks busy and unintuitive and boring as hell.
Not feeling it. Not feeling it at all. |

i went and looked at one at the local dealer, just out of wonder.
its 10x bigger then the xB only gets like 20 mpg highway and goes for over $30k.
nice try Ford........ but YOU SUCK!
too late, and very wrong ideas
Jesus owned a Ford, thats why he walked everywere. |

I think this is a repost.
Nonetheless, yea I don't know why they'd copy that style....plus this one is like over 40gs isn't it? I may be wrong. |

| I think it looks like they copied the range rover / land rover more than they copied the xB. And you ppl seem to forget that the xB is Not the 1st box shaped vehicle. |
