The first time I drove my mom's Flex I couldn't believe how comfortable the seats were. I tried to talk the wife into one, but she wasn't having it.

People either love them or hate them.

I have 7 or 8 customers that have each owned 3-4 Flex's.

I wanted a Flex instead of a Traverse when we were shopping for our 3rd-baby car, but it wasn’t easy finding one with captains seats in the 2nd row.

An AWD EB model would’ve been sweet.

THEY ARE FAST.

Incredibly enjoyable to drive. If they were $4,500 for the top model, they would've sold more. You can option one up to just over $50k MSRP.

Flexes may be the best highway cruiser in the price point.

It's weird how well they roll down the road, I haven't even been in an EB version of one. I'm sure it's even better.

What would you say is a realistic low number on a flex with an MSRP of 50k? I see they have about $4500 in rebates. Is 40k out of the question?

Nick, is there any TSB’s on the 18 150 2.7? I get a CEL every two weeks for a bank 2 cat deficiency. They replaced that cat like 10 months ago. I just delete it with my handheld reader anymore.

What code are you getting? I just checked OASIS and nothing cat related showed up.

I didn't see anything related to those codes. I would suspect a cat monitor (rear o2) if it was just one. With both I would be looking for a common ground on the circuit at fault or another wiring issue.

It's a year old. Runs like a raped ape though, still.

It’ll scare y’all Jeff. At least, my old ass.

13Cobra has a friend who runs a dealer local to me. If I decide to look at Ford again Im going to him. The dealership is off a long ass road so I can see what she’s got.
