The Flex is the first crossover vehicle to provide seats for up to seven persons. The full-size crossover SUV will be part of Fords formidable lineup in the summer of 2008 when the Flex will begin appearing in showrooms across the United States. Mark Fields, Fords president of The Americas, has this to say during the unveiling of the vehicle at the New York Auto Show: ‘The new Ford Flex crossover is a game-changer. Its the first vehicle of its kind that combines seating for seven, interior spaciousness and surprising features with a striking design that looks great on the road and at home for todays modern American families. The Flex builds on Fords leadership in crossover vehicles, which is the fastest-growing part of the auto market today.’ A crossover vehicle is essentially a large vehicle built around a platform of a small car. The advent of crossover is mainly due to the increased prices of gasoline. The public, fearing further increase of gas prices, have turned their backs on gas guzzling SUVs. While there are car buyers content with small cars, there are a huge number of motorists who wants the versatility of large vehicles like SUVs on their vehicles. To address that demand, car manufacturers started developing vehicles with the versatility of a large car and the fuel economy of a small car. Last year, the crossover market outperformed the SUV market for the first time which shows a strong inclination of car buyers towards crossover vehicles. This has lead car manufacturers to increase their lineup of crossover vehicles just like what Ford has done with the Ford Flex. The Ford Flex is characterized by a bold styling which is, of course, common on most large vehicles from Ford. Amenities include an interior refrigerator, second row footrests, an in-car communications and an entertainment system called the Ford Sync. The entertainment system features a 2,300-song personal juke box. Lighting inside the vehicle can be programmed to suit the needs or desire of the passengers. The Flex provides adequate space with its seven seats. Ford has not only taken care of the exterior and interior styling of the Flex but also integrated safety features both active and passive. Consumers have an option of a rear back-up camera which aids drivers when backing down. This feature comes in handy when parking in a tight parking space. Aside from that, the Flex is also equipped with front and side seat mounted air bags. Its safety features also include the AdvanceTrac® technology with RSC or Roll Stability Control®. The anti-lock braking system is also a standard feature and can be further enhanced with the use of EBC brake pads. These features are a great plus for buyers since the Ford Flex is aimed for families and those in that bracket are looking for cars loaded with safety features. The power of the Flex comes from an award-winning 3.5-liter V6 engine capable of producing 260 horsepower and a torque of 245 lb-ft. The engine is coupled to a six-speed transmission. The combination of the engine and the gear box allows the Flex to have a respectable fuel economy for its size.

Sadly, the traditional wood fire is no longer feasible in todays world, especially in the homes and apartment blocks of modern cities that dont have inbuilt fireplaces. However, modern technology now gives individuals the chance to enjoy the same warmth and ambience of a wood fire through state of the art, innovative technology. This has lead to the introduction of the electric fire place.
Though as yet unable to provide people with the facility to cook sausages and roast marshmallows over it, the electric fire place gives owners all the advantages of a gentle or roaring blaze (depending on their preference). A cozy, realistic fire is possible without having to deal with the hassles of smoke, ashes or clearing up.
Introduced to customers in the early 1990s, the electric fireplace became immensely popular. This was due to its ability to fit in anywhere. The portability, affordability, convenience and safety factors were all desirable qualities that encouraged people to buy these fireplaces.
An electric fireplace can be plugged into a normal electrical outlet. It doesnt require a chimney, fuel pipelines, a venting system or any other special preparations. It can also be safely used in the bedroom, sun porch, foyer or kitchen. Besides these places the electric fireplace can be used in nurseries, senior citizens residences, high rise office buildings and nursing homes.
Available in many styles and sizes, an electric fireplace can provide a romantic atmosphere in the middle of summer with the heat setting turned off. It can also be a fairly large cost saving factor in winter as it runs on the heat setting for less than 8 cents an hour, and costs around 2/ 3 cents when used without heat.
Made using a variety of materials, an electric fireplace can be made to match your interior home décor, or easily bought in brick, marble or another style of your choosing.
The new electric fireplace models, while offering more realistic simulations, also enable owners to install the fireplace themselves. It has also becomes more user friendly with every new model that is introduced into the market.
