2013 Ford Flex Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Super comfortable to drive, great mix of sure and minivan, so much room especially with all seats folded down, very decent gas milage, beautiful exterior and dash set up, couldnt be happier

As our Ford Escape lease was closing out we were shopping again. We really liked the Escape but wanted a more comfortable and upscale product. We shopped the X5, Q7, Grand Cherokee, Durango, Edge, Cross Country, and Evoque. Lots of great products, and my wife was set on another Q7 TDI, we'd had two before the Escape. As a last minute decision we drove the Flex and she instantly felt at home. Not saying she liked the Flex more than the Q7, but once cost was factored in, the choice was easy. At the end of the day she found the Flex easy to drive, very comfortable, and had a ton of useable storage. She works out of her vehicle and places a lot of value on those factors. Also, the way the second and third row seats reconfigure is simple to operate, viz is good all around, and all the controls are easy to figure and operate. This is our second Ford with Sync, so we know and now like the system...but there is a learning curve imposed by the system. Power is OK, I wouldn't mind having the EcoBoost though. One thing I really like about the car is how well its steering, ride, brakes, and throttle are sorted, all very linear and evenly weighted. No lurches or secondary movements just about every SUV imposes. Our mileage in about 40/60 city/highway has been around 23 mpg. Frankly, my wife feels the Flex is a special and unique vehicle, it fits her. As an update, we actually purchased our second Flex. Because we put around 25k miles yearly on the primary vehicle, it was time for a fresh start. This model was essentially identical to the first with one exception -- we passed on the sunroof. We like the airiness the glass roof gave the rear seats but we grown to hate the litany of rattles and squeaks that seemed to come from the roof area---a quick test drive in a roofless model clearly indicated the multiple glass panes and sliding screens were the cause. So no roof and the new Flex is completely squeakless after 5k miles. We also had a chance to take the Flex on a long road trip with kids and all the stuff that means. The journey reaffirmed our belief that this is the ultimate family highway machine...just incredibly comfortable, roomy, and with all the right toys.

I really like my 2013 Ford Flex SEL. It has all the bells and whistles to make my driving experience and my potential passengers very pleasant. The cabin space is very roomy; and all of the rear seats lay flat. Also, the 3rd row seats can reverse for tailgating. While driving, the Flex handles the road very well. I have a small rattling sound in the left front end when I go over a bump. I will be taking it in to have it checked. Hopefully, it will be an easy and inexpensive fix. Otherwise, I feel like I am in a brand new car. Happy to have found this one. The Ford Flex is very versatile; and I am very happy I chose to buy one.

The ride and handling are awesome. Room is comparable to full size SUV models and the room for passengers is unbeatable. The Flex offers as much room as the full size SUV models yet achieves far better overall fuel economy.

The Flex hands down, is by far the best vehicle our family has ever owned!!! It has all the luxuries of even the highest end vehicles while providing all the comforts of home. On the road, all the safety equipment and aides the Flex has leaves me assured that my family is safe and secure. Spacious interior makes it a comfy ride for my growing boys and their friends and even nice for the more vertically challenged like myself. The Flex is stylish on the road and easy to drive. The truck has several safety features to keep all inside protected. It has great pep in the V6 that provides rapid acceleration and hugs even the tightest corners with ease. The designers truly thought of everything when designing this vehicle. I wasn't sure about the quirky look when they first came out but I am now a true convert-when away from home, my Flex is most certainly the next best thing.

Rides very nice. Plenty of room inside. Has nice layout of instrument and information panels. Very comfortable . Very reasonable cost of ownership.

Perfect for someone who needs minivan/SUV functionality but doesnt want the same car as everyone else.

If you're looking for a family vehicle that is a modern equivalent of the classic American station wagon, the 2013 Ford Flex could be the one. It offers seating for six or seven, a range of models and prices, available all-wheel drive, and a turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine.

We have the Limited AWD 6 seater with cooler and this is one of the best vehicles we’ve ever had. This is a better travel vehicle than our Chrysler Pacifica Limited or our Model X. The seats are very plush and comfortable, ride is smooth, AC blows really cold and strong. Park assist is awesome. No complaints.

All the features were as stated , car in very good condition , every thing in working order , think I got a good deal
