Bought this car after selling a Nissan Xterra. It was a big change - the Flex is almost like a luxury car on the inside. I normally wouldn't want so many features (things to go wrong), but I needed something bigger on the inside and still AWD/4WD; this fit the bill. Got a semi-high milage car, due to budget constraints, and it does show its age, but not terribly. If I bought another one, I would want one 2013 or newer that has independent camshaft timing for better gas milage.
Everyone looking for a roomy, sporty, powerful, and fun to drive SUV needs to give the Ford Flex a test drive. We looked at many different SUV's, many with almost twice the price and our Flex was the clear winner. We decided on the Limited, AWD, with ecoboost engine and it has not disappointed. We live in the foothills and the Flex never loses power on the steepest of hills, wet, slick, snowy weather, not a problem! Room for kids, dogs, friends and luggage, as well as a comfortable spacious interior. Why the Ford Flex is not the best selling 7 passenger SUV is a mystery to me! Give one a test drive today and you will be sold!
Never thought I would ever drive let alone own a Ford anything. Bought this used. After test driving one with a the turbo engine, I had to have that feature. Roomy, comfortable, stylish, reliable, and very functional family wagon. Not great on gas mileage, but not that bad either (realistic 18mpg avg - AWD, turbo). Backup camera is essential; I wish they had it on the front as well. Opt for all of the bells and whistles, you'll be glad you did. The SYNC function could be better (maybe more frequent software updates) and I'd like to increase the harddrive size (10GB) on the jukebox feature, but at 50K miles with no issues regarding performance or maintenance, it's a great value. I'm quite happy.
