Are we sure Ford didn't take any $$ from the government. Because that looks like the new and improved Aztec. Keep that POS under those covers.

Another stupid idea from Ford. Like renaming the Freestyle the Taurus X.

***** Ford.

Yeah, its a darn shame to trash the Galaxy (or Galaxie) nameplate.

At least they had the common sense to put a bag over its head/face. :o

I rather look at the character played by the actress Anne Ramsey{Momma} from the movie "Throw Mama from the Train" than the Honda Odyssey wannabe Ford Galaxy MPV. :eek: :puke:http://www.allstarpics.net/0032385/018120631/anne-ramsey-pic.html

Ugly is a nice description, and using the Galaxie name for this monstosity(even when they spelled it differently) is shameful!

I just don't get why a company would use a name that hasn't been used for years, only to have it completely fail to represent its heritage; people that don't remember that era won't get the reference, and people that do will hate how the name is sullied, so why bother?

I suppose there are just no new original names for cars, so they draw from a hat filled with all of their past intellectual properties to choose which one to recycle?

They could always use POS, but not sure that's politically correct... ;)
