Thanks Zach, with your picture taking skills, the photos on here may make it look even better!

Well just picked up a Ford Flex in Mineral Grey, black roof, black wheels. Time to start modding!

Congrats!!!
Appears we cost each other money. You buy a new '17, I buy a new '17. I buy an '18 Escape, you buy an '18 Flex. I hope this doesn't carry over to houses.
Good color combo, any photos?

The Explorer had 72k on it.......its a 16. The Flex is actually a 14 with 40k on it. At times the Explorer was way to small for our needs and with the AWD, mpg was always around 18. Taxes were outrageous at $800 per year. We bought it in somewhat of a rush a year and a half ago and have never really fallen in love with it. So my wife asked that we start looking for something else with lower miles. After she drove a Flex, she was hooked, but I insisted on certain colors. This combo was one and with the miles and price, plus being a CPO, it was a no brainer. Will post pics soon.

Ford's concept of the Flex was called the Fairlane! and I had owned a '63 Fairlane 2-door hardtop for many, many modded years.

The Flex is a cool-lookin' vee-hickle.

Looking forward to seeing the Summerz Touch applied to one!
