Mark Fields, Executive Vice President, Ford Motor Company; President, The Americas, answers questions from Facebook fans about the Ranger, Lincoln, signing autographs, and more from the show floor at the 2010 LA Auto Show.
@leaf16nut Points well made. I myself am 22, and while I agree that the Flex does look cool, Ford has lost a lot of customers because of the flex and there is still a van market. However, the Flex is growing on me and I will admit that they are really roomy on the inside as well.
Once my 01' Windstar Sport and 04' Freestar Limited go, I'll probably go with a flex. Just takes some getting used to the new body. However, I would like to get my hands on a Five Hundred or 06-08 Taurus/Sable.
They went the "cooler" way with the flex... Vans sound so gay, yeah im 19 years old but honestly its a smart move by ford, get rid of the ugly ass vans make a cool vechicle like the flex and people that not only want van type features get a good looking vechicle to boot.
A+ on Fords part...
Compare a flex to any van and hands down I would pick a flex, and I know many people who think the same.
I've always been a Ford Fan (Cousin used to be a dealer), so bring back the Freestars/Windstars! They were great cars, and many people I know who used to own them have ended up going to Chrysler or Dodge to get a new van since you guys don't offer them anymore.
Overall, I've always been with Ford, and hope you guys keep up the great Job!
if henry ford was alive he would kill ur ass for getting rid of mercury you should have gotten rid of lincoln because the founder also owned cadilliac
awesome on the Lincoln, man Cadillac is killing Lincoln now you need new products
If you drive a lincoln people always say "ha that is just a Ford with a Lincoln badge, you got screwed over, waste of money..." it is like Buick with old people.
