NickF1011 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Would it sell better than the Flex? Only if half of Taurus sales suddenly went to wagons. In other words, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmm55 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Would it sell better than the Flex? Only if half of Taurus sales suddenly went to wagons. In other words, no. It's a chop, an IDEA! it's not a business case. I like it, but doubt Ford would consider it, since they didn't made a SHO wagon in the earlier models....even less likely now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a pure visual standpoint as an artistic rendering I do kind of dig the way it looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerM Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 So many cars (or ideas for cars), and so little money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97svtgoin05gt Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I think it looks cool and it'd be great to see them on the road but I see very little chance of building a business case for it on a production level vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter4814 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Looks awesome...love the concept (great job btw). I'd love to see a Taurus wagon but don't think it'd sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goinbroke2 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Still looks like a fwd car. It needs more rear overhang. Rwd would be awesome but that ain't gonna happen, heck this car ain't gonna happen..but add another foot to the rear and make it rwd...6 spd manual...eco3.5..and you get a modern version of.....

shiggins Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 depends on your taste i guess Give it 5+ mpg better than the Flex and $4 gas and that'll influence people's taste I bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice-capades Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Our store can only sell 4-6 Flex's per YEAR, no matter how low our pricing is in order to try to sell them. I can't remember the last time I saw a Flex on the road and have to think that Ford will pull the plug at some time soon. Even the idea of Ford producing a Taurus Wagon, not just an SHO Wagon is welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrocktonDave Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 That is one station wagon I wouldn't mind driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kam465 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Love it, always thought they should have built a SHO Wagon. I had a '92 & '96 SHO throught they were great cars, glad they brought them back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 The styling could be used on an MKS and replace the MKT with it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snkbitn Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 There is no doubt that is better looking than the FLEX. Id buy that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3OhTwo Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I think it would sell much better than the flex, it has a classy look. They did a good job on the photo, almost makes me want one; and im not one for wagons :shades: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T'Cal Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I seriously considered a Flex but bought a 2011 Explorer instead. I just can't get past the looks - too slab-sided and boxy for me. Roomy, though. What with the Explorer now available as well as the Expedition and Expediation L, Ford should consider reskinning it and moving it over to Lincoln as the Aviator.

Pete Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I would put my butt behind the steering wheel of that! I would have more use for that, then any crossover or Suv. In my opinion, the St. Wagon will make a comeback at some time. .As far as the Flex goes.....Not for me, that's for sure. Same with the MKT. Sales figures speak for themselves.

xargos Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I guess you can all label me crazy. Although I don't like the low gas mileage of the Flex, I personally think it looks great! Then again, I prefer the older, more boxy looking Volvo designs to the newer ones. Maybe I really am crazy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
