I saw it reviewed on some auto show on TV yesterday morning.

It's a pretty nice vehicle inside and out. But maxed out with options it's over $45,000.

I've had the opportunity to drive the vehicle. Very...very nice!!! Price ranges from about $28,000 to over $45,000!!! Might be the right vehicle at the wrong time given the cost of gas!!!

The are nice but sooooooo tiny. Me being 6'5 I feel was to big in it even though it had tons of leg room, but for someone who has kids and needs the extra seating but wants a smaller car its great!!!

You certainly got that right! I went by my Ford dealership about 8:00 p.m. tonight. They have one in stock that I could find, a light blue one. It was sitting on the showrroom floor. Reminds me of an early model Chrsyler minivan with a lowered roofline. Even so, it is attractive. Just very small when compared to an Excursion.

Rated at 4100 lbs towing. 5 to 600 lbs better than minivans and the crossovers.

They call it the flex because they have to bend you over at that price. I guess this is a PERFECT example of supply and demand.

I think it was the ad I saw that said it got 24 MPG. I can not justify spending $45,000 for one. Maybe waiting a few years and picking one up for $15,000.

Good gravy Tiff, you're 6'5"????

I don't think I've ever seen a 6'5" lady that wasn't on TV, with a basketball in her hands!
