"We did have a lot of pushback, or perhaps nervousness, about its shape," said Peter Horbury, Ford's North American design chief, while riding along in the Flex at a recent preview event in New York. "Although there are always (consumer) studies, there's professional gut feel involved - we're designing for the future, not now."

So, basically, us the buyers don't really get it...and in actual fact it's pretty awesome.

Arrogant, patronising bastards...I'd love the public to vote with their feet on this one.
