Despite all the hype and buzz generated around Ford’s new crossover, the Flex, sales have been so-so. Sales of the Flex are slated under 30,000 units annually, rather than the 70,000 – 100,000 predicted by Ford. Of course, the declining sales in the SUV segment play a major part.

To help boost sales, Ford is no offering a $2,500 incentive on the Flex in most regions. KickingTires says that the $2,500 cash back is available in the Midwest, South, Northeast and Southern California. In Texas, Ford is offering a $2,000 cash back incentive on the Flex.

The 2009 Ford Flex starts at $28,295.

    What the heck is this thing anyways–besides ugly??

    My wife wanted one, but the lease rates sucked. Ford doesn't want to lease vehicles, but BMW did and they got our business.

    Why not just import then build the Ford Territory from Australia. Seems simple enough, it's a better car etc.

    Not invented here syndrome is dissappearing in the 'States but Ford is holding on tight.

    Its ugly, its not the most efficient, and there are better cars out their. Simple.

    Oh, who is better, you ask? The Toyota RAV4 has both more power and better mileage. The Honda CR-V gets 20-27 mpg. Both are from companies that have a better history for reliability.

    Ford really needed the Flex to be a game changer, a car that would bring rays of light down onto the brand. Instead, its merely average.

    All I can say is that the Flex makes Ford look like GM to me: afraid of money and success.
