Anyone know about the sales of the Flex-I heard they were soft and are not selling as expected. Source-

Anyone here connected with Ford able to confirm? And how flexible on price should I expect Ford to be? I don't want to go in and start lowballing but some idea of what kind of movement I can expect will help me out!

I don't know what the above poster is all about, you mean the Flex, right?

Sales suck, but we have cut back production. I don't believe there are any sales incentives on the Flex right now, but wait until the end of November as new incentives will be announced as early as Nov. 15th.

I would suggest you get a two tone(additional $1200 I think) as the unit is clear coated twice. Better paint lustre, adhesion and gloss. I can't believe it's only $1200. It costs Ford $1000 every time a unit runs through a paint booth.

Also, there are several of us(Ford employees) on here that can pass on additional discounts to you. A phone call or an email is all it takes and you save approx. 7-8% off the retail. But go and try and get the best deal first, and then get in touch with one of us and we will hook you up with the additional discounts. It's easy and no sweat off our backs.
