Re: FX?

My mom fell in love with my new G and drove the FX at the dealership when I went to pick mine up. It's a really nice drive, and extremely convenient with all of that room and its excellent partial AWD system (My parents live in Breckenridge, CO three months out of the year). I'd be more than happy to have one in my garage! Sooo... we're surprising her with one on her birthday... hope she doesn't read this forum!

Re: FX?

I like the concept, ie a sporty SUV x-over that handles and rides more like a car than a truck. I just can't make myself like the styling on the new FX. It's just ugly, IMHO. I think the new Chrysler Pacifica is a much better-looking take on the concept, but I'm guessing it doesn't have the handling or performance of the FX.

Re: FX?

Drove the Pacifica... it's okay, but once you've driven the FX you're somewhat spoiled. The Pacifica did a great job in putting luxury into the "SUV", but if you want the convenience of an SUV and the handling of a car, go FX. I'd be interested in parking them side-by-side and going over them both... I'm a fan of the FX styling, but that's probably because I'm slightly biased.
