Saw a Ford Flex this weekend.

I saw a Ford Flex this weekend, manufacturer car, and I really liked it! I think these vehicles will do good when released. The one I saw was all black with chrome wheels and it stood out in traffic for sure.

Re: Saw a Ford Flex this weekend.

Why do they need another crossover, they have like 2 already + 2 SUVs ? I hope it looked better in person than on the pictures I just saw. What is it with Ford these days? The Navigator is the ugliest thing I have seen in a long time.
Sorry just my .02

Re: Saw a Ford Flex this weekend.

Roofline almost looks like a Mini Cooper..... Guess the two tone? One thing I do like about the new "crossovers" (As a kid we called them Station Wagons!) is they are lower than most of the Suvs. maybe a little safer?

Re: Saw a Ford Flex this weekend.

We like bodied trucks - just not Toy-sized like the Xb, PT Cruiser, HHR, etc. Ford certainly need something to work for them. The numerous Ford heirs are whining that their stock is woth half of what it was just a few years ago. Awwwww...

I agree, I like it too. I know they have similar cars in the same demo, but I think this ones a keeper.

Re: Saw a Ford Flex this weekend.

I'm sure it will do well but with more and more of these crossover things coming out from Ford and htem virtually ruining the Explorer and Expedition with the car-like suspension, I'm losing more and more interest in Ford.

Re: Saw a Ford Flex this weekend.

With that paint job it does kind of remind me of a "large" Mini...
