I'd love to win that truck! I could sell it and really show Flex how to "pimp-a-ride"...8" CST, 3" body, 40" swampers...4.88's...locker's and bears..oh my!

 

Sweet truck!

 

He needs to change out the grill, maybe to the hd. Rims are nice also.

 

I like it, but why on earth they cheaped out and used those horrid chrome overlays on the handles is beyond me. I entered, and I will win...

 

Paint the door handles to match the body, put a set of the black headlights on it, and get some smaller wheels with more rubber and I would drive it..

 

Who is Funk Master Flex?

 

Heres an "short" description

His name is synonymous with taste-making muscle: for more than a decade now, Funkmaster Flex has reigned as America’s No. 1 radio personality, reaching more than 2 million listeners a week. When he’s on the air, an estimated 10% of everybody tuned into a radio in the metropolitan New York area is listening to him. That’s power…

Building on the runaway success of his SPIKE TV hit, Ride with Funkmaster Flex Flex has developed his own mini-empire of car-customizing TV shows. ESPN will premiere a half-hour program in which Flex customizes the cars of leading sports celebrities from the NBA, NFL and Major League Baseball. And the Funkmaster Flex Super Series, Flex’s racing league, will be making its debut soon. The show offers a fresh perspective of the world of motor sports by providing up-close views of a new type of stock car racing and candid profiles of emerging drivers. Drivers from across the country compete during a 10-race season for cash and prizes. Since Flex’s television invasion, he has been in great demand, making appearances on the Video Game Awards (which he also served as co-producer and musical supervisor) co-hosting Autorox, the first-ever nationally televised Auto Awards Show.

Flex has also been a guest on MTV’s TRL, Chappelle’s Show on Comedy Central, The View, and VH1’s The Fabulous Life Of… . By 2006, Flex will have an estimated ten automotive programs on television, some featuring the telegenic rap personality as host, and others with Flex working behind-the-scenes alongside long-time partner RedMoxie Productions. The powerhouse RedMoxie team was responsible for parlaying the success of Ride With Funkmaster Flex internationally, and the show is now seen in seven other countries including the U.K., Italy, Germany, New Zealand and Australia.

Funkmaster Flex’s love affair with automobiles is no on-air gimmick. He is a true custom car fanatic—so much so, The New York Times recently dubbed him the “evangelist of hip hop car culture.” He founded Team Baurtwell, the highest profile custom-car club around with members like Shaquille O’Neil, and musicians Busta Rhymes, Missy Elliot and Faith Evans. Flex is the consultant to the hottest car accessory companies, advising them on a host of issues, especially product placement and future advertising. This knowledge has led to numerous endorsement deals from some of the biggest companies in the game. Flex’s popular driving shoe line with LUGZ has sold, to date, an incredible 2.5 million units. He has his own line of die-cast metal toys with Hot Wheels, a line of remote control cars with Tyco R/C. and recently signed marketing deals with the Ford Motor Company and with Castrol Consumer North America, which is counting on Flex’s taste-making appeal with “a new audience of young people” to represent its Syntec brand of motor oil.

In recent years, Flex has become the one-stop source for the latest and greatest in the world of customizing. When chart-topping artists like 50 Cent, Ludacris, Queen Latifah, P. Diddy and DMX need advice on the latest trends in automotive customizing, they need make only one phone call—to their man, Funk Flex. As if that wasn’t enough, Flex leads one of the industry’s largest and most effective street marketing powerhouses—Franchise Marketing.

Funkmaster Flex is single-handedly reinventing American car culture for the new urban audience. Not only does Flex represent his own line of hi-octane automotive accessories, but he also developed and promotes an annual ten-city Celebrity Car Show Tour, bringing the most exclusive and expensive candy-colored rides to fans in cities as far-flung as Miami, Atlantic City and Las Vegas.

The bottom line is this: Funkmaster Flex has an enormous presence with today’s most desirable target audience. When he plays a record, it becomes a hit. When he sponsors an event, it sets attendance records. When he markets a product…people buy it. Flex is known, he is respected, and most importantly—he is trusted. He is simply a cross-promotional genius.

 

i hate funkmaster, i cant stand his damn voice it gos right through me

 

Does anybody know if they just painted the rear bumper or they just replaced it with an FX4 bumper?

 

The interior is STOCK, what the heck gives. Anybody could do that to a ford. I can't remember the guys name on here but I would rather win his silver supercharged F150 than Funk's. Hell there are several trucks on here I'd rather win. And no offense to anyone that doesn't have the center console, but I would never buy an F150 with out the center console. Ford must have either told him to keep it looking like an F150 so it could keeps its public profile during the contest.

 

I like the truck other than the handles and the graphics; hopefully they are not under clearcoat.

For the most part, the truck is not meant for the the normal Ford F150 buyer (the people on this board). It is meant to get another group of potential buyers interested in the F150 and help sell more trucks into another market.

 

I watch his show most of the time. He does good work on the classic hot rods. Always a little over the top with the sounds for me, but everything else is usually pretty good. I think it's great that he has taken an F150 and introduced it to a bigger audience. Not that it really needs it. And with any mods, including those on this website, some you like, some you don't. I'd like to win that truck!

 

B-O-R-I-N-G!!! I've seen some of the vehicles he's "flex'd" and thought he did some really cool, outlandish, crazy stuff. But this one is boring. Just about any one of use could have done these mods in our driveway over a weekend (sans the paint job). Sooooo much was left stock it's ridiculous. I was actually disappointed after seeing the pics.

 

I 100% agree with Gordo. BORING

 

I think it looks cool but they did NOTHING with the engine and NOTHING on the interior, no TV's, no speakers, no superchargers......where's the flex in that?
