This is an ideal family size car. Its safe and easy to drive. Its also a head turner. I'll consider another in 5 years or so.
Test drove a few cars, including a few smaller 4 cylinder SUV's. The 2013 Ford Flex was a perfect compromise. The gas mileage is not outrageous (getting 19/26) for being a roomier SUV. However, the pickup is much better than a 4-cylinder and it feels 3x more spacious when driving. When I test drove an Escape, I felt confined and choked. Immediately sitting in the Flex made me feel like a king. The features are great, and the ability to fold down the back two rows essentially turns your SUV into a roofed truck. I was never a fan of the boxy look, but the '13 model has corrected some of my past misconceptions regarding the Flex. Overall, I love this car and I'm actually glad to be moving from a Corvette into this beauty. I thought it would be a hard transition, but it has been so perfect!
This is the Most Amazing car I have ever had. You think your smart phone is smart, this tops that, once you learn how to use it.haha.
