Don't we get the Explorer which is also a seven seater?
The Everest is based on the Ranger and is conventional body on frame. The Explorer shares it's platform with the Flex and Taurus.
Ahh yes. I missed that part that it is Body on Frame. But my comment was more in response to this statement:
"As much as we all love the Ford Flex around here, the public at large doesn’t hold it in high regard. It looks like a big wagon – or maybe even a hearse – and most soccer moms don’t want to drive around in something that makes them feel like an undertaker.
It’s too bad as Ford does have another vehicle in its arsenal that would probably suit North American tastes just fine. And here it is: the Ford Everest."
Explorer is an option in place of the Flex.
