That is what ford tried to do and they wind up dragging on the same platform FAR too long.
ford need there cars to be fully redesigned every 5 years like every other major car company in the world does.

Every 5 years? Not with the Odyssey van. IDK about the cars but the current generation Honda van was released for the 2002 model year with a refresh for 2005.
Some HondaPreview.com comments regarding the 2008 Honda Odyssey:
For 08 the Odyssey is slated for a mid-model change. Although most of the sheet metal will remain unchanged you will most likely see Honda's standard list of mid-model changes which include headlight, taillight and bumper changes. Expect to see a few color changes as well as another trim level to finish out the last 2 years of the cycle.
2009 Honda Odyssey: Most likely more of 2008.
2010 Honda Odyssey: Full model change.
Again, IDK about the Honda car line (we own the van), but for the Odyssey it's going to be 8 years between redesigns.
