Both outstandingly ugly.

At least the Audi gaping mouth looks half decent...that thing on the Explorer is ugly.

I award them 20 Aztek points each.

I know...Anything the Europeans do just looks better for some reason.

Even when it's the same thing

Is the Exploder trying to beat the Mountaineer in terms of ugly-ass front grille ?

Considering projects like the Aztek, that actually might be the best looking option.

Shut the fvck up.

These SUV's are currently produced anyway, so there really are no "more" SUV's.

If you are going to be an assclown, at least make sensical comments.

wow ford worked hard on that one. Changed the lights and put in a new grill. IF thats all they were gonna do to the outside should have LEFT the old grill. Sure did look better on it than that thing.

I cant imagine the new Avalanche to be much better than it is already, which isnt wonderful

It was only meant as a freshening. Nothing more. The Explorer will also get the newer 4.6L DOHC V8 and a new interior that looks similar to the refreshed Mercury Mountaineer.

he's entitled to his opinion of a perceived problem with the country just as much as anybody else is. hostile bigotry will get you nowhere.

That looks fine for a SUV. I dont know why anyone would find that "ugly". Ugly is asstek, this is "OK", maybe even bland with that rear.

I'd still never buy one though.


Oh yah, they are totally copying Audi/VW with that grill.
