Car Tech - 2015 Ford Flex

2015-10-09
this is the 2015 Ford Flex and yeah I'll cut to the chase I actually like Biff car more than I thought I would I mean it's big and it's boxy but something about it just sort of in gears itself to me it's a big box on wheel for moving people and stuff around and the flex is technically an older vehicle it hasn't changed very much since this introduction so many years ago so it is sort of hampered with food kind of old tech in the dashboard we've got forged MyFord Touch system which I've already complained about a number of occasions it's very slow it's not really great it gets the job done but it just feels crunchy and dated on the positive side though you can get this vehicle with a lot of cool tech features including Ford automatic parallel parking system which is great if you want to park the car while eating a two-handed sandwich here's a cool feature out back we've got a motorized 3rd row seat that at a touch of a button fold into a flat loading floor and then pops back up in the two seats that adults can fit into but we've also got a third setting called tailgate mode that allows the seats to do a sort of back flip so that you can hang out in the back of the flicks while you're tailgating or picnicking it's pretty cool the flexes boxiness sort of works in its favorite what gives it this really awesome interior volume for example we've got a really flat roof and on the outside that's sort of you know a generic looking styling feature but on the inside it means that on the third row you've got as much Headroom as you've got on the second in first row which makes this a really awesome seven passenger SUV in case you ever decided to shove some adults back there but the flex is sort of car like ride height means that it's also very easy to get into without sort of having to climb up or grab a handle and hoist yourself up you just slide into the thing like you would with a small crossover that's when a 15 flex is available with a choice of three engines or the 3.5 liter v6 engine naturally aspirated and there's an all-wheel-drive variant of that powertrain this particular model is the 3.5 liter EcoBoost v6 that's going to add a twin turbo charging system to that kicking the horsepower up to 355 horsepower torque also jumps up to about 350 pound feet the 2015 Ford Flex again started around $30,000 but this EcoBoost limited version is pretty close to fully loaded starting at around 40 but we've got a couple of options I have bump it up to that fully loaded line including special paints a towing package and a tech package that's going to add the automatic parallel parking that I talked about earlier all in we're looking at around forty nine thousand eight hundred and forty five bucks now price is one of the last things that I look at when evaluating a car I like to decide whether I like it before I figure out whether it's worth the money and in this case almost fifty thousand dollars is a lot more than I expected this car to beat so you're going to want to be more conservative with your options or spend a little time haggling that price down at the dealership you
