This is one of Fords new concepts. Like it better then that Scion xB thing, but would rather see them build the Bronco they showed last year. At least it was a 4 X 4..

This is way sweeter..

I think Ford needs to seriously consider hiring some Dodge designers since Ford continues to design the most God awful looking trucks and SUV’s.

The top one looks like ”look mommy, I have a miniature Brinks truck…” and the bottom one looks like ”look mommy, I have a jumbo Tonka truck…

 

Ford needs help with their cars, but leave the trucks alone... I like 'em all. Actually, Ford only needs a little help. They can't close on a car... take the 500 for example. Great side profile, elegant interior and nice ****, yet the front end screams "I'm a cheap rental-fleet POS". WTF? The Lincoln LS was ultra hot until you got a glimpse of it's rear... thankfully that got changed after a couple years. Focus just needs some front end work... New 'stang is totally hot... they actually got that ONE right.

 

Absolutely agree with you on that one but they were also able to go back to see what the professionals did and then added some modern touches to it…

 

Yeah, but look at the new T-bird... they can still screw this retro stuff up. Bad.

 

True, when I first saw it at the dealers my first thought was ”It’s freaking ALL plastic… It looks so cheap in person…

 

The stang is the only retro thing build that looks sweet. Never did care for the T-bird retro. Suprised they didnt do an Edsel retro.

Ford should just stick to trucks and give up on the car segment, although the Montego's face does look way better than the 500.

Neither of the above concepts were anything great, but that Bronco did look pretty good in the flesh, way better than the pic looks.

Maybe I'm too much of a geezer, but I don't understand the attraction of those boxy little cars. At least this one has a little bit of style to it...but that name...Synus? I don't know of any other cars named after a body part.

I don't think it has to do with an age thing. I'm 19 and I think it's U.G.L.Y! Must be some weird cult thing, or something.

 

It's funny cause the only people I see driving those box Scions are in their 40's and look like total losers.

 

Looks like a clown-mobile to me . . .

I'd expect to see 15 - 20 circus clowns hop out of it:

 

My thoughts exactly Burt

 

Instead of being car jacked, the crooks will be telling you get the guy in the back to open up and hand over the cash. That thing looks like a Brinks armored transport vehicle.

 

I agree with Taz. ^

 

Do explain the new nickname...

EDIT: Nevermind, I got it.
