    The car and the drawing are the same except for one thing... the proportions of the body to the glass area to the wheels. That's why the VX looks so cool and so different from all the other SUVs that have copied it's various details. You could wrap the VX styling around an Explorer and give it big rear doors and three rows of seats and cargo area with good visibility out the rear with a V8 option but then it would have never become an icon... it would just be a normal truck with odd styling and no carmaker now is going to sacrifice utility for sport the same way that Isuzu had the balls to when our babies were conceived. There is no danger of anyone else copying the VX. They can copy the little details, but they will never copy the larger concept (unless VW does that Concept T thing)
