    Like others I shopped and shopped for a Vehicle primarily looked at the Acadia and similar cross overs. Finally decided on the Flex for the price and options. One major complaint is the poor quality or the paint job and body work it almost looks like the doors and side panels dont aline properly. If you look closely you can see allot of overspray and the quality of the interior carpet is horrible at best you can tell that Ford did not spend alot of time making sure that they did a quality job with the trim. Overall I love the car but would like to see Ford put a little more effort in the quality of the interior and craftsmanship.

  • Ford is back! - 2009 Ford Flex

    2 years ago I dumped my GMC Suburban and purchased a Scion XB. I was always unhappy with the XBs size & amenities, but the mileage made up for it. I was considering a GMC Acadia. Then came Flex. As soon as it appeard on Yahoo I knew it was going to be mine! I now have a loaded SEL. My wife loves it, too! Finally a cool, luxury ride. Yesterday it averaged 27.9 MPG at 60MPH over a "hilly" 10 mile highway segment using the cruise control! Wow! It beats the sticker MPG, even in the city. Im very proud of Ford!

  • Awesome Vehicle - 2009 Ford Flex

    Quite possibly the best American vehicle that Ive ever owned. This vehicle rides smoothly and the AWD version of the vehicle got 24.6 MPG on a long distance trip of 1300 miles. This is 2.6 MPG better than the EPA sticker. The designers of the vehicle seem to have thought of everything including a 110 V AC outlet at the back of the 1st row center console. Must order sync on the vehicle too so that you can make hands free calls (legally required in some states) and also can control your music player or thumb drive with music on it. Seats are amazingly comfortable and ride quality is better than a minivan. Buy one and youll be impressed too.

  • First Impression and Experience - 2009 Ford Flex
    By -

    Weve had our Flex for about 2 months now and find it to be one of the most satisfying cars weve ever owned. My wifes first impession was that it looked like a hearse and she wanted nothing to do with it. Once she sat in it and drove it she liked it as much as I did. It is the most comfortable and quite car weve ever owned. Recently we were caught up in a storm outside Lubbock, TX. In particular the winds were terrible. This car was rock steady on the road with no swaying at all. Inside it was quite and relaxed. We even watched as the front move through on the doppler radar image on our navigation unit. We love this car.

    I love my flex. The interior is plush, and I feel like I am driving a designer car. The flex is fun to drive and all of my friends cannot wait to go for a ride.

  • You make excuses to go for a drive - 2009 Ford Flex

    Everybody loves the Flex, the kids always want to go for a ride. Most of the time, a new car is just transportation but this vehicle looks great and rides smooth. I park it in the driveway and neighbors stop and look at it with wonder. A new Honda van would never stop traffic, but this does. If more people drove it they would fall in love with this car.

    This is quickly becomming one of the best cars I have ever had. Very comfortable and quiet, decent gas millage, great electronic features, tons of room and awesome in all weather. I got around everywhere in snow and ice when western Washington was hit with storms.

  • JRs Flex Review - 2009 Ford Flex

    We purchased a Ford Flex as our "people mover" for a family of six. Our previous work horses were a Suburban (160K miles) and a Honda Odyssey (130K miles). I loved the Suburban, the Odyssey was adequate, but am wowed so far by the Flex. We opted for 50/50 2nd row seating. This combined with the 50/50 3rd row seating has lead to little to no arguments about who sits in back! (all seats are equally comfortable) The interior features are great. We opted for the sky lights and this really opens up the passenger seating. My wife quickly fell in love with the bluetooth/SYNC capabilities and enjoys hands free cell phone talking while driving. 4500 miles so far and no regrets. A winner!

  • Funky and Fun - 2009 Ford Flex

    I traded an 2007 Ford Edge in on an 2009 Ford Flex. Ill be honest, Im still unsure about the exterior appearance and have taken a lot of ribbing about it being a "midget hearse" but you dont ride on the outside and the interior is awesome.

  • Fun, Fun, Fun - 2009 Ford Flex

    This is a head-turning car. It has everything--looks, performance and comfort. Heres the highlights: Vista Roof, Sync, Sony stereo, climate control, smoooooth ride, quiet ride and great looks. It has tons of room inside. I would recommend the white roof, ambient lighting package and the convenience package. If youre looking for a car that stands out from the crowd, the Flex would do it!
