You can bet that Everest has missed a lot of internal marks inside Ford
it was benchmarked against the Prado but looks too much like a Ranger S/W
hence Toyota's eagerness to add Hilux based Fortuner to Prado as a point of
differentiation.....
IMO, this why 490 sales of Everest in any month is a major accomplishment for Ford,
a Ranger nose on an Everest is unbecoming especially when the starting price is up
near $50K, people look at Everest and just go buy a crew cab Ranger, it it doesn't even
get to a comparison with other SUVs.
Sorry if that's seen as an insult to Everest owners but I think you all deserve something
that's styled better than just a Ranger S/W and clearly, so does the market here and abroad.
