Now it really does look like a Mazda 6. *sigh*
I miss the days when real cars of all brands were of their own design. Yes, I know I'm driving an Escape/Mariner/MKX/Tribute. It was convenient and fits my needs. I would gladly have taken something else worthwhile that was useful, practical and a unique design all its own.
So that's a Land Rover, H1 Alpha (USDM), Land Cruiser (tho it's a Lexus now, too), maybe FJ Cruiser (too pricey for me)... maybe something else? I'm drawing a blank. And that's the point - it's all generic crap now.
