It threw me off at first, but I actually really like it now. Might be the best looking of the rangers imo. The more aggressive arches, and boxier front end almost gives me bronco pickup vibes.
Also rear legroom in the escape with its sliding seat is a good selling point. Adults can fit back there comfortably. Makes it a good vehicle for families. Bronco sport is super cramped in the back. You might see singles or couples jumping to BS from the escape, but it’s a tough trade for families.
I kinda hope you can option the truck without it just to have a cleaner design if you want. There are rumors this is coming to America, sign me up if that's the case.
The answer to something no one asked.... I find them both to be hideous but its more about the grille and lack of cohesive lines. Although I do appreciate the concept, gives us something to talk about because honestly our camp is dry....
