I had been test driving Tahoes and Youkons and accidentally found the Flex. I had test drove a used car and happened to look over and saw an all white flex. I asked my husband, if for kicks, he wanted to look at it and when we did we were in for a suprise at how much room it had. It had more room than any vehicle we had looked at. As soon as I test drove it and felt how smooth it was I was hooked. I LOVE driving it and I love the gas mileage. It fits our family of 6 very well!

I love this car more than I thought I would and I thought I would love it a lot. It is incredibly quiet ride, quieter than my previous car. I get a lot of questions from other guys at Home Depot about this vehicle. I needed a mini van but didn't want to make that move. The flex gives me hauling, comfort and style in a more manly configuration. Thanks Ford!

Just purchased, so that being said... Love it at this point. I did not want it, the wife did. I would have loved to have picked up a Sequoia but with all the toys it defeated the purpose of saving some $$ This ride is tight. Somebody gets it at Ford. Not the aesthetic dept. but engineering team did some homework. Things are where they should be and they work. The paddle shifters are a great feature to snap you out those times you see yourself driving by a window. Handles great, breaking you feel that you've got some weight behind you. Coming from an H2 its a little better but close. NAV system and voice rec. is very good, parking assist is really cool. If your a Mac, its a Mac.

Flex Is Excellent!

This vehicle from FORD has made us completely forget about our overpriced, awfully reliable BMW X5 Sport, and we Saved $30,000 by purchasing FORD FLEX instead of European service nightmare.

The Ford Flex is a comfortable versatile vehicle but has some problems that Ford is unable or unwilling to fix. The main one is cabin heat. In cold weather below 32 degrees or so interior heat is a big problem. There is little or no heat unless the car is driven 15 minutes or so and then only when the vehicle is at speed. At idle the heat disappears. It does not matter how high the is set. It is apparently a design problem on early Flexes. I purchased my Flex new and every winter I have complained to Ford about it and every year they say it is fixed but it is not. Two Technical Service Bulletins and over $300. in "repairs"and still no heat 10 years later. If you live in a cold climate make sure the heat at idle when the temperature is below 35 degrees is good or do not buy a Flex. Other chronic problems are the second row seat latch locking up on 7 passenger models and interior water on the passenger side from clogged cowl vents. It is unfortunate that this review is only 1 star but other than the aforementioned problems the Flex is a nice comfortable vehicle.
