crossovers are morphing more and more into each other. Last generation's SUVs were more boxy... the original Pathfinders and Blazers with the sharp edges. These days I see the rear of a Hyundai Tucson and wonder if we copied them or they copied BMW.

The same can really be said for typical passenger cars. Years ago you could tell what it was from headlights or taillights in the dark... now it's practically impossible.

Anyway, the Edge [Sport] with the 22s is actually the only other crossover I would buy because of looks.

This was so true for me. 10 years ago, 90% of the time I could tell what model, year, brand the car was by the headlight and tail lights at night.
