2009款福特Flex 在这辆车上，梅斯勇敢地试着把一辆拥有载货能力的小型货车改头换面成一个后现代的大盒子，将时尚和实用混搭了起来。2008年夏天，Flex作为2009款开始销售，但除了加州的那些冲浪爱好者外，它一直就没怎么找到过买主。《人车志》杂志（Car and Driver）对Flex的描述是，“它的外形好像是受到了装冰箱的板条箱的启发，”而它的销量就从来没有过什么起色。 |
2009 Ford Flex Mays mixed fashion with function with this brave attempt to disguise minivan carrying capacity with a post-modern box. Sales of the Flex began in summer of 2008 as a 2009 model but, with the odd exception of California surfers, it has never found an audience.Car and Driver described the Flex as having "styling that seems to have been inspired by a refrigerator crate," and sales have always languished. |
