One of these pulled up at my workplace today and I can not get over how stupid they look and that got me thinking, who thought making a shittier version of an Odyssey was a good idea.

This thing can’t be useful as a truck, can’t seat as many as a van, costs $50k and burns more gas then an Odyssey (10l/100km hwy vs 8l/100km hwy). Does anyone who drives these things think they are hot shit?

    Just to make sure you’re doing a fair comparison, how much is a new Odyssey where you’re at?

    I’m seeing the Honda Odyssey you’re comparing things to cost 37k USD new, where the ford maverick starts at 24k new. At less than 2/3 the cost of what you’re comparing to, the maverick seems like damn good value. At that price point you’re comparing it to sedans like the Honda civic or Toyota Camry.

    The maverick carries 4 folks with better mileage and can moonlight doing truck things.
