TFLcar.com - 2010 Ford Flex ecoboost self-paking challenge

[JohnxWaynexGacy]

I like the end, "it says put it in drive."

[Spungholio]

Gotta laugh at the ricer fanbois in a Ford -specific thread.

I have the 2011 lincoln mkx. I took the 2011 lexus 350 out for a spin and the acura. The Licoln had them beat hands down for horsepower, interior and price. The lexus had better step up to the plate in terms of interior, I don't think they've made a change since 2003.  Very dated. The only one that tempted me was the infinity EX35...but it was sorta cramped inside. Ford leaps ahead lately. No need for crappy imports any more!

[marabdl86]

Impressive for sure but if you can't back your car up yourself you shouldn't be driving anyway.

[MrAussiebogan]

lol @ 0:55 " should i put it in drive" hahahah no dickhead just sit there all day im sure after a while the car will realise it hasnt finished parking and put itself into drive to complete the task that a human with a brain could not complete.

[40markava]

There is know reason not to consider ford unless you just hate America and want your kids on welfare one day! Honestly I really love ford!

[ironbloodus]

Damn impressive.

[jankren]

Is there any other car with this technology?

[HelpSaveMotherEarth]

@jankren almost all ford linclon mercury and others they make have this feature...and its the best because it also pulls you forward..unlike toyotas where it will back you in and the you have to pull urself forward.

[abenaway]

Thats awesome but really do we need more drivers that shouldnt be driving in the first place

[charleedennis]

355 hp is such a blast to drive

[Catlow20]

What the hell.I just paid an arm and leg for a brand new Lexus LS because it could park its self. if I would have known this before 8/8/09. I would be driving this thing instead.

[sweetwater88]

I don't know if the newer Lexus use the very accurate radar-based system like Ford's but the Lexus one was based on cameras and totally as a smug-gimmick. Is your's camera-based or radar?

[Catlow20]

Ford's IDK the Lexus is Camera based.

[StreeTRacR008]

You really bought a car...

JUST BECAUSE OF THAT??

[pkidro]

@StreeTRacR008 ROFL, he's either old or an old lady

[rsxzx6r]

@Catlow20 uh...the lexus system is more advance...but that aside..u wud rather drive a flex than a lexus?....get therapy...lol

[Catlow20]

@rsxzx6r personally i'm scared to death of Lexus right now.

i just traded it for a brand new Taurus. And guess what? IT PARKS ITSELF.

[rsxzx6r]

@Catlow20 u r stupid if ur "scared"....most people only hear of wut happened, toyota still is top rated by professionals...camry is still top pick in consumer reports...and u bought a taurus cuz u cant afford a Lexus.

[EatmyDust1311]

@rsxzx6r haha u r fnny. toyota is hated by most car experts for making boring appliances. and the ford taurus is a 40k car

[rsxzx6r]

@EatmyDust1311 r u stupid....camry is boring..but does what it is intended to do...has been at the top of consumer reports and car and driver....whats so exciting about the taurus?....both these cars are no ferraris..they are family cars...dumbass

[EatmyDust1311]

@rsxzx6r 365 bhp, 400 with nothing but a simple tune, with the SHO ecoboost motor. the fastest sleeper family car made today.

[rsxzx6r]

@EatmyDust1311 im guessing ur not a business man.....there is a reason the camry is the best selling sedan...and the taurus was once discontinued...if people want a sport car they buy one...not a taurus...plus the SHO is 40k + dollars...thats bmw territory...not economy territory...which is what most toyotas market buyers are..

[EatmyDust1311]

@rsxzx6r the taurus is a near-luxury sedan. the camry is an economy car to compete with motor trend car of the year, the ford fusion.

[Catlow20]

@rsxzx6r that mabey. I cant afford my life to a scrappy Lexus.

But just about all Lexus cars are ugly as sin anyway

I don't know what I saw in my old LS.

My Taurus is bold and well rounded. Very stylish.

While Lexus cant get out of that boring Camry look.

The only Ones i like are the GS to OLD, and the IS to Small. So for now I wont even consider Lexus or for that matter Toyota. Ive just purchased a 2010 750LI to replace the luxury ride of my LS.

[Catlow20]

@rsxzx6r I'm also thinking about reporting a nation wide check on how many Toyota cars have stalled out in the recent years from normal driving. My LS even stalled out on me a few times. Weird huh?

[rsxzx6r]

@Catlow20 lexus is ugly 2 u...but its the best selling luxury brand in the US....guess many people like the looks...try doin a report on how many GM cars stalled or blew up....way more than toyota...media blew it out of proportion

[yellowcow13]

ive got a flex its the best i love it so much looks good drives nice and even the non ecoboost has power

[rax2099]

Thats pretty cool

[vonversace]

IMPRESSIVE INDEED

[Roushfan5]

I think the Flex is my favorite Ford car.

That or the SHO

[steve9509]

Fords are getting more and more Luxurious. the Flex,new Taurus, its pretty cool.

[DAILL2DEF]

that's actually pretty damn impressive
