The Flxible Company was an American manufacturer based in Ohio that made motorcycle sidecars, funeral cars, ambulances, intercity coaches and transit buses. It was founded in 1913 and closed in 1996. Between 1953 and 1970 its production moved from highway coaches and other products toward transit buses, and in the years that followed it was one of the largest transit bus manufacturers in North America. This entry records the company as a builder of road passenger vehicles, so that individual Flxible coach and bus models can be linked to their maker.
