Ford said it replaced the Freestar...a mini-van that didn't sell worth a hoot.
The Flex isn't selling either. It's overpriced, its styling is controversial (one box atop another-looks like a Mini Clubman on steroids). Like the dreadful Pontiac Aztec, you either love it...or hate it.
Now Ford has introduced a Lincoln version (typical FoMoCo rebadging job with some trim changes).
Its grille reminds me of the washboard pioneers used to use..and still can be bought from Sears.

We need an Edge sized SUV, cuz while we have no kiddies, we do have five Basset Hounds.
When Steve took over as chapter leader, I showed up at the first coupla GTG's driving a Titan CC (don't say it!).
When I sold my car collection, I no longer needed a tow vehicle, so its gone bye bye.

Escape? You gotta be kidding? I know you can fit into it, but I can't. I looked at one several years ago, wooda taken it for a test drive, but couldn't fit behind the wheel...its legroom is slim and none for someone that is sasquatched sized.
The Fusion has faaar more legroom.
I never towed anything with the Titan (or the two previous, or the '04 Lariat), didn't need to...but if I did need to, I coulda.

We have no need for anything like that any longer, why I now drive a Fusion and She, who must be obeyed, has an Edge.
We need an Edge sized SUV, cuz while we have no kiddies, we do have five Basset Hounds.

I have three girls, my grandson, my wife, MIL, and Mom so when we need to take the boat out for a day, we can load up in one vehicle capable to tow anything I can hook up to it.
The platform is still there for Ford to produce it, just not bold enough!
