i gotta admit, i wasn’t a fan when i first saw it, but now, i’m a believer…the ford flex is a really cool car – and that is coming from someone who drives a honda element – arguably the ugliest car on the road….
i’m also going to add in, this was one of the most satisfying sales we’ve made in awhile. the first contact with the client came by way of email, and a screenshot of a product review that was on amazon.com…it turned out, this lost-in-cyberspace product review resonated enough with this customer to earn his business, which we were proud to accept.
as usual, we offer a personalized consultation for the purchase of a rack system. there are just too many configurations and products out there to be a one-size-fits-all solution. every car is different, every car owner’s needs are different too. that’s how we ended up with the Thule 480R Rapid Aero Complete Rack System.
Here are the pictures to show:

The Rapid Aero Load Bars, used with the 480R, create a solid and eye-pleasing foundation

The 480R Traverse Rack is a very precise fit that works great on the 2010 Ford Flex
The parts shown on this car are the following:
1 x Thule 480R Rapid Traverse Foot Pack
1 x Thule Traverse Fit Kit 1518
1 x Thule RB60 Rapid Aero Load Bars
1 x Thule 544 Lock Cylinders – 4 Pack

Mind confirming pricing on this setup for me? I own a 2009 flex and would love the same thing. Exactly what I need. Came across this in search engine results =)
Not local so would need to have it shipped to us.

thanks for your comment…
the AeroBars have been replaced since this blog post was written with the Thule AeroBlade crossbar, which is more aerodynamic and quieter.
Here is a link to the complete rack system which includes the fit kit, the towers and the AeroBlade crossbars.
