I'm in my early 40's and I've owned cars, trucks, and SUVs of a variety of different makes. This is my favorite vehicle of all that I have owned. I needed a vehicle that would seat 7 and this does so in comfort. My 6' 4" oldest son can sit in the 3rd row. The ride is smooth and the car handles well to be so long. I'm old enough to remember when SUVs were new, but my kids begged me not buy another SUV. The look of the Flex is much more modern to them. And as far as looks go, we get lots of them when we're riding in this car. People love to come over and look at it in parking lots. The people at Crown Ford in Nashville were great to work with.

Traded in our 2005 Land Rover LR3 for the 2011 Ford Flex and couldn't be happier. Many of the same features available like phone sync, glass roof, Sirius satellite, heated seats, dual AC controls. However, additional cool features are Microsoft SYNC vehicle health reports emailed to you, bluetooth streaming (i.e. playing Pandora over iphone), USB input, keyless entry, MyKey, seat/mirror settings for 2 drivers, and seats are so much more comfortable! Extended warranty is also so much better than Land Rover - you get luxury treatment from Ford without the high price! Gas N Go gives us five years of service with no money out of pocket for anything including brake pads & oil changes. No brainer.
Excellent Choice ofr Family and Small Business

After my son totaled my 2007 Ford Freestyle, I searched for something similar and came up with something better. More room. Better ride. Quiet ride. Driven for over 60k miles now all over the country and it is the perfect car for travel. Perfect car for my small business. Fits all kinds of boxes that I use in my business. You can fit 10 foot long 2x4's completely inside the car. Not the most comfortable front seat. Can't quite get it to where I like it. Tail lights have condensation and it builds up. Shorts the bulb out. Buy lots of replacements. Tires are expensive to replace (about $1k for all four). Very little repairs so far. Just crossed 150k in mileage. bottom line - I would buy again.

2012 Ford Flex Limited 4dr Wagon (3.5L 6cyl 6A)

Purchased 09 Ford Flex Limited in 2009. Loved it, but traded for 2011 Ford Explorer when rumors were that Ford was going to discontinue Flex. Had nothing but probs with my touch on the Explorer, traded for 2011 Ford Titanium. Due to oversized wheels and tires, it drove like a lumber wagon. Check with dealer on smaller wheels/tires, made me a better deal on 2012 Flex Limited. Had 2012 on lot, I drove it, huge difference in ride from Titanium. Have since order 2012 Flex Limited, anxiously awaiting delivery. P.S.-It is not my habit to trade this often, but have been offered great deals from my dealer. I know the deals are real, as I am a retired auto sale rep. (30+ years).
