Used 2012 Ford Flex Wagon Consumer Reviews
Love the Flex
We chose the Flex for its interior space, exterior styling, and 4,500 pound towing capacity. We think the red with white roof combination looks stunning. We were concerned that the non-turbo engine would struggle pulling our 3,200 lb. camper in the mountains, but the standard engine has worked just fine -- including a tow through the Eisenhower tunnel at 11,138 feet. Mileage commonly runs around 26 mpg on the highway, and 16 mpg pulling the camper at 60 mph. We love this vehicle.
Flexy
I bought my Ford Flex in 2012 with 150 miles on it basically out of the box. 257000 miles later I just put brakes on it. I have literally done nothing but change the oil every 4000 miles and this car just continues to run excellent! Depending on how fast I go out on the highway it's close to 25 miles per gallon. It's roomy and you can instantly convert it to 7 passengers and there all regular seats not a bench seat. It has a big nice smooth ride and it handles great and when I need power I just put it down on the floor and it flat gets up and goes! It's excellent in towing and I can pull the biggest trailers with no problem whatsoever! I love the sync system in it which is very easy to integrate your phone to the system. It sits lower than an SUV but higher than a car which makes it easy to get in and out of the car. This Flex was by far the best purchase I've ever made in a vehicle!

Fabulous Flex
We purchased a Flex in 2012 to meet the needs of traveling, towing boats and moving. The car performed admirably. Unfortunately, we recently had a severe accident at highway speeds which totaled our car. The air bags deployed properly and the interior was untouched. Engineering is excellent and we look to replace the car with another Flex!

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.
