This is why I want one. And don't forget the large screen HDTV that replaces the back inside of the SUV. So instead of looking at reality, you can look at a virtual version of what's behind you. It would be easy for a computer to add some over-head display info on the HDTV in the back. If this isn't the replacement for the old 80's sex van, I don't know what is. IWMSN = I want my SYNUS now!

IWMSN = I want my SYNUS now!

If no one is riding in the back, the back seatbacks fold down for extra cargo space. "The steering wheel stores under the dash in case the driver wants some more legroom while the car is off." Yeah, legroom... that's it. From http://auto.howstuffworks.com/ford-synus.htm It seems that Ford is trying to create the ultimate sex-wagon:

I wish Ford would bring this SYNUS into the market but there's no way. It even has a metal cover that comes out to cover the front windshield. I'm sure they are going after the Scion xB market.

(I'm unsure, because I think I may have seen the same car twice.) The funny thing is, I couldn't see the badge clearly, and I thought it was a Scion, not a Nissan. In some ways, it looks like a re-worked xB. I thought maybe "Cube" was a play on "xB". They are cool, but kind of funky/faddish too. I'm still trying to decide if I like it.
