Do you ever turn on TBS and find yourself watching National Lampoon's Vacation for the umpteenth time? Poor Clark Griswold ordered a brand new station wagon for his family's ultimate trip to Wallyworld, but the dealer didn't have it ready. He is forced to haul his family out to California in the shoddy Wagon Queen Family Truckster. Most of the movie revolves around the family getting into adventures due to the terrible quality of their vehicle.
While the Truckster is a classic example of the "woodie" station wagons our parents hauled us to school in; the Ford Flex takes the concept and gives it a modern twist. It is packed with features that would have saved the Griswold clan some time and money had the technology been available in the 1980's.
Getting Lost in East St. Louis
In the movie, Clark breaks down his masculine exterior and stops in a neighborhood in East St. Louis for directions. Clark's innocence gets taken advantage of when his hubcaps get stolen and his car gets tagged. If he were driving a Ford Flex, he could have easily used the built in GPS navigation system to figure out how to cross the Mississippi.
Breaking Down in the Dessert
When Clark and his wife get into a fight, he doesn't notice a sign that says "road closed" and crashes his car. The Ford Flex would have alleviated any bodily harm caused to the Griswold family because of its commitment to safety. It has an AdvanceTrac RSC electronic stability program, six airbags, and the most advanced anti-lock break system to date.
Almost Getting into a Crash because of Christie Brinkley
The Ford Flex could have helped Clark Griswold avoid almost crashing his car into a semi when Christie Brinkley drove beside him by? it probably couldn't have helped that situation. The vehicle could have, however, given him a much wider view given its lack of blind spots. Clark could have probably seen the truck sooner and avoided the near collision.
Clark would have been much better off driving to Wallyworld had he driven a Ford Flex. He would have been even better off if he decided to break down and purchase some plane tickets for his family.
