Ford has decided to add a little cooler to their Flex model automobile, making Ford the official car for DUIs. The cooler is legit, give it two-and-a-half hours and the cooler can bring a can of beer soda to a chilling 41 degrees. If you are trying to freeze stuff, the cooler has an option to bring the contents of the cooler down to a freezing temperature of 23 degrees. And if you really want to be inefficient, keep the top of the cooler popped and use it instead of the AC to cool the entire car!
At add this option to your Ford Flex it’ll cost you $760, or the price of one soft-sided cooler and about 300 bags of ice.
My experience with in-car cooling devices is limited to our family’s old Toyota minivan, the 1989 model (which most closely reassembles a cardboard box on wheels) had a sweet cooler/freezer/ice-maker in the front console. However, after a handful of failed attempts at making ice, the “cooler” turned into a tape cassette compartment. I see a similiar future in sight for those who add this option to their new Ford Flex.

It’s about time somebody addressed the problem of keeping beer cold in the car.
I can’t beleive the useless crap car companies waste their time developing. I see this being about as useful as those car alarms that everyone ignores.
