Why should I also consider these?

The Honda Pilot is the Flex’s most daunting competitor.

Redesigned for 2009, it has a large, controversial grille to go with much thicker styling and, to TheCarConnection.com’s taste, too much interior plastic.

The Buick Enclave is considerably sexier than either the Flex or the Pilot, but there’s not quite as much vertical space as in the Flex, and its transmission hunts for gears on twisty roads.

The Hyundai Veracruz offers a softer-looking alternative to the Flex; it has good V-6 power, third-row seating, and a plush, quiet interior.
