well there was the element b4 the xB and those dont look alike to much, and Nissan had the cube and that was differnt from the other box cars. but i know what u mean most boxes will make u think about the xB.

they have a concept vehicle that never went into production and looks kind of like the xB but its a 2005 so they had been working on it since at least 2003 or so.
its the Ford SYNus concept

but Fords in general look kind of boxy like that anyway.

it's called the flex, it's supposed to be an alternative to the minivan. the company i work for is a supplier to ford, so we have a "buck" in the lab atm...it's way too big to be an xb ripoff. the shape is similar, but it's more like a chopped explorer than a stretched xb, if that makes sense.

to me it just looks like a longer xB but maybe bcuz xB comes in that color too. but that ford concept is gruesome, and the back looks like a bank vault door.
