How do you like Ford's New Vehicle called the Flex? (minivans, buy)

Hmmm... its interesting.
At first, with the accent roof, I thought it resembled a Toyota FJ Cruiser.
But then I saw a 5"8 person standing next to it.. and its size then looked like a Chevy HHR.
I dunno.. seems a little compact to be a 6-7 person vehicle.

No pizazz. Looks like an old shiney clunker. Grampas hunting/fishing car.

Nope. Not for good ol' Twinkle Toes! LOL

I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the 2008 6.1L Hemi Challenger!!!

"NO" Bold Moves. Boring and Passe! This is Ford's answer to the families that do not want minivans. At the end of this year, Ford is ending production of the Windstar minivan. They feel the cuv's (edge and freestyle, er..renamed Taurus X(dumb)) will entice a lot of ford loyaltist. The Flex is suppose to fill in that gap between the Fusion buyers to the enlarging family buyers.

Ford in recent history, has never excited the consumers with their product design(except with the Ford GT and the revamped Mustang). The flex, IMO, is blah. Lack of style and vision, that encorporates everything Ford's design team believes in, will truly put the automaker in the ground. Bill Ford Jr. help facilitate the downward spiral of Ford. I wonder if he sleeps well at night? I'm sure Henry Ford is turn in his grave.
