We test drove the Acadia (09) and you're right on with your assessment, I think. We ended up with a Ford Freestyle (Taurus X) and have been surprisingly happy. It's no longer made, which I just don't get. Seats 7 w/AWD & has great seating flexibility & decent gas mileage (20 city/23 hwy). It's large and makes the Saab wagon look like a Mini-Me in the garage but it's nowhere near as big as the Acadia/Outlook. We like that it's short enough (heightwise) that we can easily load stuff on the rooftop carrier. And because the front seat folds flat we can put all sorts of long stuff into it, including our 11 foot long mainsail for our boat, never mind 8 foot pieces of lumber, etc, and still seat 4 people.
Hopefully Ford's new Explorer will be something like the Freestyle. I'm definitely interested in seeing it, even though we only buy cars every 8 yrs or so and they're always used!
