Beginning with it's uglier, there are quite a few differences. But the engine is still the reliable 5cyl., which really makes this a 70/80 fusion vehicle of some kind. Yet some bugs, alas, remain. Too much money spent on restyling and retooling, when a couple hundred million of those dollars could have gone into engineering improvements, instead. My opinion. A search through some of the previous posts can tell you quite a bit more.
