In-car refrigeration
Availability: $760 option on Ford Flex
Coolers packed with ice are a staple of the summer travel season. But if you buy a Ford Flex full-size crossover, you'll have a better option.
Flex buyers will be able to get an electric refrigerator that goes between the rear seats. Ford brags that the in-car fridge can cool up to seven 12-ounce soda cans from room temperature to 41 degrees 40% faster than a standard home refrigerator.
After the car is parked, it will allow temperatures inside to rise no more than 10 degrees over three hours, according to Ford.
No more soggy sandwiches of melted ice to dump -- but you'll have to wait until late June. That's when they go on sale.
