Honda's element, chevy building thier version, kia, now this.
The design worked, and cars were sold. Now everyone is trying to jump on the bandwagon.
What they are forgetting though is a long lasting car at a low price. Even if ford made this car somewhat affordable, no matter how cool I thought it looked, I would never buy a ford.

I found an earlier thread on Ford Flex (from April):
https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=169917 Ford Flex looks like a big xB

It would have been nice if Scion had just taken the 1st Gen xB, reworked the front end to look like the Flex, put in the new 2ZR-FE 1.8L engine, and added side airbags.

I think we're seeing Ford move away from truck-based SUVs to the cross-over. Say goodbye to the Explorer soon.

I couldn't find any fuel usage on or around my surfing 
I worked for Ford as a certified parts counter man and brakes, sensors exhausts, lamps and a whole lot more were replaced and with as little as a 1000 miles or less. Darn shame too becuse they almost got their heads out of their butts. But I see with this disaster, they still try to win people with 7 passenger high fuel using junk. They will not float now that they are forced to report new fuel usage stats. They must be biting nails.
