I do prefer the new headlights though, I feel like the old bumper had an alwkard amount of plastic under the headlights

I completely agree on the facelift - but pre-facelift I say they didn’t disappear into the background as much because they were noticeably ugly. Now, they’re just numb in appearance. Kinda like how they drive.

It looks like a Sorento and Grand Cherokee got too drunk together one night.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > TFSIVTEC drivesavolvo 06/09/2016 at 19:33

in contrast the new Edge looks waaaay better. I hated the first two generations, but this one looks great.

Damn close to each other structurally, both explorer and freestyle are Volvo based

Yep, I always forget that this and the Taurus X existed.
