ice-capades Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Attached is a copy of the 2015 Flex Order Guide that was published on 09/15/2014. The original model changeover was for scheduling to start on 10/16/2014 and a Job #1 date of 11/17/2014. Scheduling for the 2015 Flex has been delayed for each of the past 2 weeks. Yesterday Dealers were informed that Job #1 has been delayed and that 2015 Flex units are now expected to arrive at dealerships in March 2015. 2015 Flex Order Guide.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck zepfel Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Thank you sir for posting that info. I was beginning to think that maybe a new model wasn't coming out anymore and Ford forgot to tell the public. ChuckZ Harvest, AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2b2 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) TY! & Ice-capades, have you heard any reason why FoMoCo seems to bwe bucking the practice of calling vehicles which begin production after the first of the year by the ModelYear following? ie by SOP, this Flex should be 2016my Edited November 1, 2014 by 2b2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice-capades Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 Sorry 2b2... Just speculation that Ford doesn't want to skip the 2015 MY especially since the vehicle is just a carryover. Rumor has it that the Flex will be gone in another year or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2b2 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) TY, ice-capades something about this really hits my [suspicion button] & it's happening(ed) on more than the Flex so if they weren't deliberately trying to confuse things/us/ME they'd have made the model change for 2015my earlier in cy2014... ...now when the heck will they go to 2016my?? a short-short my? or continue this counter-everybodyelse stuff? ..."gee, Ford is still trying to sell "last year's" leftovers" plus ( re: The BOTCH ) I wish they'd get away from these TurkeyDay-to-NewYear's changeovers = just asking for trouble during the WORST possible time of the year for transporting - ie WINTER Edited November 2, 2014 by 2b2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice-capades Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 The 2015 Flex schedule was changed to coordinate with the 2015 Edge Job #1 date per the latest information available this morning via the FMCDealer.com dealer communications portal.

silvrsvt Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 TY! & Ice-capades, have you heard any reason why FoMoCo seems to bwe bucking the practice of calling vehicles which begin production after the first of the year by the ModelYear following? ie by SOP, this Flex should be 2016my Most of the time, the MY starts after September of the CY. Cars that come out in the spring used to be called 1/2 MY..but that has been rare and the US DOT allows for cars launched after 2 Jan to be called the next MY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Either the vehicles are simply running later than expected like the Edge and they were supposed to be out before the end of this year or they just didn't want to have a short model year for the 2015 model. It's possible that there was not going to be a 2015 Flex and they changed their minds at the last minute which caused the delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
