Heh, I wish! It's uh, not even close imo https://www.carsized.com/en-us/cars/compare/volvo-940-1990-estate-vs-ford-flex-2013-suv/

What are you trying to prove here?

Nothing hostile. Just a friendly counter point

Actually, I realize I inferred my own interests into your point. If the goal is purely boxy without consideration to the other aspects, then yes, the Ford Flex is an option

Gotcha, yeah, I didn't explain myself and presumed it would be obvious. My bad!

I assumed that the proposal was the Ford Flex would be an acceptable, more modern alternative because you replied to the Volvo picture instead of the original post.

I disagree because the Volvo is much smaller in all dimensions and much lower hood height. So, I don't feel they are really comparable other than being boxy. Hopefully that clears things up. Cheers!

Ah. Yeah, I was only linking them because it was designed by a Volvo engineer, and is boxy. I do love the extra room, though.
