I really like the idea of the Pontiac Vibe and the Dodge Caliber......I think Ford should make one.

 

what about the Edge, isn't that the same?

 

Edge is mid-size (I think).

 

Focus CMAX or Mazda5.

 

those are both too compact mini-van esque...and too expensive. Not to mention that the CMAX isnt here. The caliber can be had for the 14,500-15,000 range.

 

The Caliber is also a ****ty car. And the '3 5-door competes directly with the Vibe/Matrix you mentioned. Ford just needs to bring back the hatch Focus.

 

yeah, i like 5 door hatches, but i really would not be interested in a tall CUV like vehicle. I think Ford has enough offerings in the CUV department, just give me a regular 5 door hatch with some good looks and decent cargo space.
