Agree completely, but Ford seems to want to sell vehicles at high profit, over any other reason.Seriously. There are only a few I can tell from the pack, and that is largely due to their uniquely repulsive design characteristics - Nissan Juke and Kia Soul come to mind, though there are a couple others equally aesthetically revolting that I'm surely missing. They may be fine cars and operate well, perform all tasks asked of them, get great fuel economy, and last a decade without repair, but most of them are gutwrenching for me to look at. Call me shallow, I can't see the beauty.
Ever since the entire automotive world copied the Lexus RX series, there's almost nothing but Faberge eggs on wheels out there. Ex-wife and I had an RX400, and while it was an extremely well-built and practical vehicle, it was far from inspiring. The first company to combine "practical" with "inspiring" will make a mint... I'm hoping the new Bronco will get close, at least.
That is their job of course, but doesn't bode well for "us", and I doubt the new Bronco ever gets
anywhere near jeep cult status. Ashame, as it's hard to get a vehicle that popular to begin with, but
to ruin it's image being shortsighted, is a whole new "crime" level..........
