The Globe and Mail I really like my Ford Flex, but it’s now discontinued. What would be a good replacement? Published February 5, 2021 Bookmark I drive a 2018 Ford Flex with 109,000 km on the dial. What would be a suitable replacement? The model is now discontinued, and I am at a loss. I like the vehicle for its road feel (long wheelbase and low centre of gravity) and storage space. I would happily keep it for a while in spite of my previous Flex needing a full steering harness at 170,000. – Graham Richardson: Ah – the Flex. Big, heavy, blunt and solid. Ford built them in Oakville and sold them by the double-ton until they finally ran their course last year. But those who drove them loved them.
