If I had a choice of a Flex or a minivan, I'd take the Flex anyday!........

I'll need to see one on the road before I say yes. But one things for sure, it's a hell of a lot better looking than the HHR or PT.

They had one at a local dealership. I had thought about getting one. I found that I thought that it looked better in pictures. It's bigger than you might think.

I think that it's a decent vehicle but I'm glad that I'm in an Edge for now.

Well, if I had to choose between a Flex or an Econoline, then yes. I'd get the Flex.

If I had to choose between a Flex and an F-250, then NO.

I'd hit it. Lease on the MKX is up early next year, might have to give this one a whirl for 24 months.

Yup and Toyota is loosing ground while Ford is gaining. Good luck ever getting Honda to screw up, they just make some damn fine vehicles

I drove one a little at work Weds. Good riding vehicle, good power and handling. I also rode in the second row. Very roomy, I was felt like I was sitting in a reg chair at home. Not bad for a Big Boy @ 6' 1".
The features are cool, like all the seats except the drivers, folding flat for cargo storage. The cooling or freezing console, you select the temp. The newer naivagtion display, is shows it with a horizon as if you were looking foward from the sky.
We have three of them at work, $28,560 - $37,955 all depends on the toys. I wish Ford would have priced these a little better.

Also as a size comparison. A scoin XB was in the drive That same night. The FLEX is about 20 inches longer and about 3-5 inches taller. But if you made an outline of the two regardless of length, it's funner how similar they (outlines) would look.
