ugly as sin....looks like its trying to be a honda element.

the 3.5 is a wicked motor though...ive driven a 3.5 AWD taurus and its a very quick setup.

I'm actually kind of torn. The grill is kinda fugly, and the rims still look kinda prototypeish. Aside from that I'm not sure it looks so bad. I like the white roof with the dark body, and there looks to be alot of glass for good visibility. If it's not huge and overweighted it might not be that bad of a ride.

Only available in automatic though... bummer.

EDIT:

I HAD A FEELING AS SOON AS I LOOKED AT IT...

Check the bottom one, I wonder if that will carry the new Ranger badge. Not too sure if I'll care for that...

I've always been a FORD fan and I love my BII, I'll drive her till I can't fix her anymore, and I have to say that is the ugliest, dumbest looking peice of gay crap I've seen in a long time. Am really dissapointed in FORD. Really, really dissapointed.

the bottom one is photoshopped man you can tell if you look real close at the rear fender where it starts to flare out its kinda pixelated

I have no doubt it's a photochop, the problem is in that it looks like it might be able to be pulled off. There is technically enough room for a moderate size bed in the back of that thing.

I also found some pics with people standing next to it, it's definitely too large and way too lanky. if it was station wagon sized it might not be as bad.

looks like a chevy astro to me. still cant decide my reaction when i see one on the road; will it be shock or laughter? seriously ugly piece of shit. pictures don't do this thing justice. wait till you see one and you will wonder why ford even thought they could sell any.
